The increasing scarcity of resources and environmental constraints are having a major impact on design issues. What changes can be made to project design to take account of these vulnerabilities? These new forms of sobriety, far from impoverishing projects, allow them to be deployed in creative or even militant ways, opening up dynamic and lively perspectives. - 2024/05

Comment confronter, relire, remettre en question le rôle des femmes à la croisée des historiographies en sciences, arts et design ?

Design du peu, pratiques ordinaires constitutes act II of the thematic dossier devoted to the Arts of making.

Ce présent recueil de textes constitue une nécessité conceptuelle qui ne s’accomplit qu’à travers l’épreuve complémentaire du design.

When we published the call for contributions "The design exhibition", we imagined receiving proposals which would question the specificities of design exhibitions by comparing them with art exhibitions, by returning to an experience of curating, by immersing oneself in the design project as an exhibition space ...
