Design Retreat 2024

The Design Retreat offers emerging talents from the Swiss design industry, DPS alumni and the DPS commu­nity of all ages the oppor­tu­nity to consciously take time to reflect together on their own projects and working methods at a special loca­tion over several days. Experts will offer exciting input on the topics of circular design and inno­va­tion as well as strate­gies on how to sustain­ably organise everyday work into a healthy work­flow. Exclu­sive food design insights will bridge the gap between the circular economy, produc­tivity, sustain­able consump­tion and design. The find­ings of the retreat are inter­nalised in a joint project on site. The Design Retreat thus creates added value on
different levels:

• The transfer of knowl­edge around the topics of circular design, inno­va­tion and food design is promoted.
• Discussing your own projects and estab­lishing a healthy working culture leads to new insights.
• The shared expe­ri­ence of the new Design Retreat format sustain­ably expands the network between talents from the Swiss design industry, DPS alumni and experts from various design disci­plines.
