Welcome & Introduction Workshop: A human-centered approach to the creation of a sustainable community bench In this seminar we introduce the design thinking mindset from the perspective of architecture, participatory practices and maker spaces. The focal point of the seminar is to help you engage in a meaningful exploration of a real-world case study and ultimately guide you to redesign the typical neighborhood bench in ways that better meet the contemporary needs of your community, considering design issues, materials, durability and social impact. Together we will explore how a human-centered point of view can nurture your ability to be observant, to intuitively interpret what you collect and to develop functional, sustainable ideas that are meaningful to those you are designing for.
Monday, April 28th, 12:00-14:00 (CET)

About Deep Dive I&E
This online course provides practical knowledge and hands on experience for a deeper understanding in materializing an innovative idea in the entrepreneurial world. Starting from a design challenge, you will be introduced and follow the steps required to end up with a prototype that covers existing needs. With your active participation in the lectures, workshops and coaching sessions with I&E experts, you will build and present a pitch deck and learn from fellow participants through peer review evaluation of projects. A contest at the end of the course will award the best pitch and best prototype (i.e., sustainable neighbourhood bench).
The course is open to participants from all levels of Academia (Professors, Students and Staff), Industry, Government and the public sector.
