Tool as Object

All welcome

Lecture

Thu, Oct 17th, 2013 / 6:30PM

How do tools change the relationship between designer, client, and consumer? Summer 2013 D.O. Fellows Nic Schumann and Allon Kapeller-Libermann explore this intersection by unpacking the modern production environment and investigating how an increasingly adaptable set of tools changes the way we think about objects.

Nic is a systems designer and senior in Computer Science at Brown who uses language to build meaningful structures from an undifferentiated context. Allon is a object designer of disruptive products and spaces, currently working on a useful mean of production.

Fellowships are offered every summer to students and recent graduates who wish to develop their own projects alongside current Design Office members. Fellowship applications are accepted every January.
