UNIBZ Design Festival: Centre Periphery

Published on 11 December 2014 in

The temporary event Centre Periphery represents a unique opportunity not only for students from Bolzano and other national and international schools but also for young professionals to meet, discuss, and produce artifacts during a four-day workshop. The activities of Centre Periphery will include public discussions and a series of evening lectures on the theme that gives the event its title. Participating in Centre Periphery means engaging in a debate with internationally renowned designers and the faculty of the Faculty of Design and Arts at the Free University of Bolzano.
Each day of Centre Periphery, we will work together on original projects that will be realized in the spaces and workshops of the Faculty of Design and Arts at the Free University of Bolzano. Every evening there will be lectures by visiting designers followed by refreshments and live music.
Participation is free. To register, simply send your curriculum vitae and portfolio to centreperiphery@unibz.it by August 17, 2014.
