Interview with Gediminas Urbonas, 01/10/2021 - About usWe are a group of people who pay attention to ecology and put in enthusiasm.
Since the 21st century, climate change and biological mutation, explosive technological growth, and global systemic change have irreversibly shaped our living environment. Ecology · Crisis Design is an emerging design discipline that is nature and life oriented. Equipped with the cross-disciplinary knowledge such as ecology, bioscience, synthetic material science, geoinformatics, climatology, designers predict for the crisis as well as provide flexible, innovative and multi-layered visions and solutions. This emerging field brings together innovators in diverse fields such as: synthetic biology, architectural robotics, low-energy manufacturing, waste recycling, minimally invasive design, living materials, biomaterials, molecular self-assembly, digital twin, climate big data, future prediction, and geo informatics, exploring for topics in the areas of artificiality and nature, human well-being, resource and material innovation, crisis and resilience, and security and health.
Four pillars of the discipline stand as Design for Crisis, Ecological Landscape, Resilient City and Deceptive Technology. Based on this, designers develop innovative and systematic projects from XS-scale such as bio-manufacturing to XL-scale such as geo-engineering. They reorganize knowledge, work across fields, conduct global research and innovation, and propose unique ways to address difficult future challenges. Students are encouraged to grow to be comprehensive designers that could leverage the resources and participate in various organizations, to renew the design cultures, to leading the revolution and to definite the future of design.
