Our workshops display the action fields we seefor Designers to provoke the desired change in the world.
We constantly develop their content further and extend our portfolio.
Our Topics
The following topics represent the action fields we identified within the Sustainable Design field.
Combinations within the displayed topics are possible.
Just talk to us about your ideas.
Design Solutions for Climate Change
The change in climate is measurable and visible. Dealing with current climate crisis scenarios as well as facing potential future threats, this workshop aims to find solutions in all fields.
Design Solutions for Industries
The ongoing pardigm-shift towards sustainability and information society transforms industries of all kinds.
Products and processes need to be rethought and redesigned.
Design Solutions for Infrastructures
All infrastructures are undergoing a profound systemic change.
Whether it’s education, transport, health, or else: we need to prepare for a sustainable transformation in our community.
Design Solutions for Permaculture
As a resilient life-style on the smallest scale,
permaculture serves as a blueprint for replacing the mass agriculture system as well as a framework for poor and isolated regions.
Design Solutions for The Other 90 Percent
The majority of the population deals with fundamental problems on a daily basis. Finding ways to overcome the grotesque disparity between rich and poor is a big part of a sustainable future.
Design Solutions for Humanitarian Crises
In sudden humanitarian crises it takes too long for professional help to arrive.
Solutions for the rescue of victims and the immediate availibility of basic human needs need to be found.

to find out they are not that far apart from each other and discover their explosive potential to change the world.
Learn about a specific field
all aspects of it, the recent state of the art and factors contributing to or fighting against the development.
Find out why the time is perfect
since one meta-trend is replacing the other, leading to profound changes in all segments of our society.

for you personally and your further creative career according to your personal values, interests and talents.

free of choice according to your values, interests and talents and find inspiration to make your project a reality.
