The 2016 festival theme r/evolution

Design is a discipline which brings solutions on daily life. Designers are the driving force of evolution’s concrete and visible process of our way of life.

It is the adoption of some of their proposal which establish new usages – the small revolution of our day life. Because the design doesn’t impose anything, it suggests. Actor of progress, design is at the heart of change through the 3 major points of this r/evolution:

– r/evolution of the conception

-r/evolution of the production

-r/evolution of the consumption pattern
