Design For New Realities

We all know that the world is changing constantly, but we’re reaching a shifting point.

Disruptive technologies, ideas or even social movements don’t tend to stick easily, but when they do, it’s our job as designers to understand better and adapt to new realities. So, let’s talk about what that means.

In this panel, we’ll be having an open discussion about design in the age of AI, spatial computing, and political uncertainty, among others that will keep shaping the world we live and work in, and understand how we, as the shapers of realities can and should be part of these movements.

About Bruno
He started his career freelancing for cultural projects and small businesses, but even before that, he was introduced to design through computerised textile design in his family's business. Then, for 6 years, he grew and developed cultural projects around music, co-directing an online magazine called Culturarte and eventually organising music shows through Sofar Sounds.

Since 2016 he’s been working at OutSystems, a visual coding platform company, helping the company brand and design practices to grow and scale. He is now leading a team of creatives and trying to grow a truly global design organisation. On the side he’s been helping grow the Figma Community, handling the Portuguese chapter, and leading the moderation of the official community on Discord.

His most recent side-project is called Design is for Everyone, DifE for short. In this project, he’s going to fight for a more democratised and open practice of our profession, building several assets from podcasts, interviews, and videos, to free design courses and even an attempt at a worldwide census of the state of Design as a profession. All of this in the name of #opendesign.
