International Design Day is an opportunity to recognise the value of design and its capacity to effect change. On this day, designers are challenged to reflect deeply on the well-being of people within their local environments, and to find innovative solutions to local needs by using design as a vehicle to honour diversity and transcend borders.
What if designers first asked, is it kind? What if the measure of design was how well it cared for people and their relationships rather than how profitable it was? The International Design Day theme for 2024, ‘is it kind?’ is about building kindness into design practice.
On 27th April, you can join the Lithuanian Design Association and ICoD conference on line and watch the IDD Conference..The LDA event brings together speakers beyond the design profession to share their perspectives on incorporating kindness into design methodologies.
The event will feature speakers from sociology, philosophy, design accessibility, and performative design engaging in a conversation around the question: is it kind?
