Objets trouvés - Fondation 93

Collaboration with Fondation 93 – Seine Saint Denis France. Product design methods for joung people at school. Low tech interactive lighting objects.
Design Concept and workshop : Maria Laura Méndez Martén
Scénography : Quentin Vaulot & Goliath D.

A series of workshops created to understand the process of design. They can be applied to different areas like ecology, productivity, sharing, digital object, industrial or artisanal products, materials and functions. Participants so far have varied from small children to students (design, applied and fine arts).

The workshop techniques can also be applied to other businesses wanting  to develop their creativity. The issues addressed and production goals naturally adapt to the age and skills of the participants and the time available. Beyond the development of design concept, the main goal is to teach people how to work in teams. But also how to formalize ideas by different methods and mediums. Searching at the end how to translate this into a finished product.
