Dezeen has teamed up with DesignMarch to livestream a day of talks on the role of architecture and design in addressing global imbalances. Watch the concluding session here from 2:30pm London time.
DesignTalks is a programme of panel discussions that take place at the Henning Larsen Architects-designed Harpa Concert Hall and Conference Centre in Reykjavík, Iceland.
The final session explores the design of movement and the "otherworld" through media such as choreography, fashion, embroidery and queer culture, featuring choreographer and playwright Sigríður Soffía Níelsdóttir, author and filmmaker Hrund Gunnsteinsdóttir, interior architect and former editor of Frame magazine Robert Thiemann, as well as visual artist James Merry, a long-term collaborator with Icelandic singer Björk. Other topics to be explored in the discussions include how designers and architects can design for the human senses and its responses, as well as how to develop new ways of learning through design.
