Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia (IAAC)
About the workshop:
Join us on a hands-on, collaborative workshop to explore the Atlas of Weak Signals, developed within the Master in Design for Emergent Futures at Fab Lab Barcelona. This toolkit offers a glimpse into how designers today can engage with complexity, uncertainty and change through new tools and ways of thinking. It creates a practical space to navigate and understand possible emerging scenarios based on underlying trends in our current world. In this workshop you will get introduced to the type of thinking and practices developed within the programme, an opportunity to experience how design can engage with future challenges while opening new paths for research, practice and collaboration.
