'Designing with and for living systems': Inspire Keynote with Carole Collet

UAL Awarding Body

Join us for our second 'Teach Inspire Create' Keynote session with Carole Collet

As part of our &#x27;Teach Inspire Create&#x27; annual programme of digital events, Carole Collet (Professor in Design for Sustainable Futures at Central Saint Martins), will be joining us for a live Keynote session &#x27;Designing with and for living systems&#x27; on Thursday 25th March at 2pm.Carole holds two key roles at Central Saint Martins. She is Director of Maison/0: a creative platform for Regenerative Luxury, set up in 2017 in partnership with the luxury group LVMH. She is also co-director of the Design &amp; Living Systems Lab: a research group which explores the properties of biological living systems in order to develop wider ecological understanding through creative practices in art, design and architecture.As an educator, Carole has pioneered the integration of sustainability into the curriculum by founding new courses, such as MA Textile Futures in 2001 (now Material Futures) and the first MA in Biodesign in 2019. In her research, she questions how and what we can learn from living systems to develop inherently sustainable propositions. Her design research includes biomaterial prototyping as well as exhibition and conference curation and publications. She curated the first international biodesign exhibition Alive, New Design Frontiers in 2013 to propose a sustainable framework for biodesign. Her work has also been featured in international exhibitions such as the V&amp;A and the Pompidou Centre.Carole regularly delivers keynote speeches and contributes to conferences on the subjects of biodesign, material futures and sustainable fashion. In her Inspire keynote for Teach Inspire Create 2021, she will draw on her extensive and varied experience to reveal methods for adopting biological principles in the creative process. Exploring creativity sustainably, and sustainability creatively, she will discuss ways of developing new nature-positive design propositions. We hope this session helps to inspire our educators and provide ideas for future project briefs.The session will be held on Zoom and will consist of a 30-minute talk followed by a 15-minute Q&amp;A. All delegates must book a place to attend. Booking in advance is also highly recommended.
