In 2025, we delve into the transformative role of emerging technologies, challenging attendees to move beyond fear & embrace innovation. As tools like AI, VR, AR, robotics, 3D printing, & prefabrication reshape industries, this theme explores how designers can balance technological advancements with the integrity of traditional craftsmanship.
We invite designers from all disciplines to reflect on how new tools can elevate their work. Through collaboration, discussion, & installations, participants & attendees will interrogate ethical implications, push boundaries, & explore the potential of these technologies in their design practices.
Chance + Change promotes a mindset of curiosity—encouraging thoughtful adaptation to change whilst honouring the foundational principles of design. Ultimately, this theme positions technology not as a threat but as an ally in the creative process, inspiring designers to forge new pathways toward innovation without losing sight of artistry and purpose.
