About this event
Cornwall Design Festival | 22nd March – 1st April | The Anatomy of Design
As part of their digital takeover of Cornwall Design Forum, Doorstep are getting under the skin of the design industry with the ten day ‘Anatomy of Design’ digital festival to showcase and celebrate the many and various practices that co-exist in the sector.
Amongst other virtual events, five key speakers will be discussing their design practices, each focussing on a different sense and exploring how design can be considered not only for visual enjoyment but for tactility, taste, sound and smell. The three designers in residence also have some really unusual, multi-sensory events planned to snap you out of the daily digital routine. Check out the full lineup and book below.
*The Anatomy of Design Festival is supported by Cultivator, and is at the centre of Doorstep’s digital takeover of Cornwall Design Forum. Cultivator is a project funded by European Structural and Investment Funds, HM Government, Arts Council England and Cornwall Council.
“We want to begin new conversations about how the Cornish design industry has evolved, asking what design is, and more importantly, what it could be.” – Doorstep
