“Designing Happiness” team at the International Design Biennale in Saint Etienne
A week ago, the team of Kaunas 2022 Design for Happiness program visited France, Saint Etienne, where the International Design Biennale was held. The Biennale, which has been running since 1998, is a very important design and cultural event both in France and worldwide, attracting visitors from different countries every year.
“Bifurcations” is the theme of this 12th International Design Biennale in Saint-Étienne. The Biennale’s events encourage the design sector to be adventurous, to change the direction of its thinking, and to be unafraid to explore new paths in the here and now. It also invites you to appreciate design as a tool to help you choose which path to follow.
In total, the seven exhibitions taking place during the Biennale address issues arising from the intersection between design and everyday life:
– What is a design already doing?
– What else can it do?
– Can it do it differently?
