Vitra Design Workshop in France
Published on 01-07-2010

We are leading a week long workshop from 25 July, at Vitra Design Museum Workshops in France.  Our workshop theme is 'The Secret Life of Plants' and we will closely look at trees and plants, to be inspired by them and create an object in response to them.  Inspirational sources could be microscopic structures or cycle of life of a plant - the fruits of the workshop could lead to the structure of a bridge or perhaps a piece of jewellery.

7月25日より、ヴィトラ・デザイン・ミュージアムの主催するワークショップで「The Secret Life of Plants」と題した一週間のワークショップをやります。植物をミクロやマクロの視野から観察、考察してその神秘に近づき、そこからインスピレーションをもらって「発見」を形にしてみよう、というテーマです。成果物は橋の構造かもしれないし、身に付けるアクセサリーになるかもしれない、、、それは参加者の興味やバックグラウンドにゆだねようと思っています。

This summer is our third workshop at Boisbuchet and we think it is a fantastic environment to talk and think about design, also meeting with people from all over the world.  It seems there are just a few places still available and in case you know anyone who might be interested in, please forward this message.
Participation fee and registration is on this page: www.boisbuchet.org

t.n.a. Design Studioのメンバーでのこのワークショップの指導は3度目になりますが、世界中から集まるデザイナーや学生との出会いが毎回楽しく、運営スタッフや供される食事の素朴で素晴らしいこともあり、楽しい夏の行事になっています。締め切りの人数までに少し余裕があるようなので、もしも興味を持たれそうな方を知っていたら、ぜひメッセージを回覧してください。場所はフランスです。

費用や登録についてはこのHPに詳細があります。
