Design Talks
for Designers and Non-Designers

Meet and interact with active designers in the field.

Let’s make space for open collaborative discussions about anything and everything design. The aim of the discussions is to connect designers from around the globe and cross-pollinate design specialties, experiences, expertise, and knowledge.

We are all designers.
Non-designers are encouraged to join the conversation so we can learn from you, too. Together we can develop spaces for design to take place — anywhere and at all levels!


Discussions are on Zoom:

12h -13h EST, (9h PST, 18h CET, 21:30 IST)

Reserve your space in the conversation

Summer Bites 60 Day Creative Challenge

Together, we built our creative momentum over a 60 day period using a creative word each day to launch the creative process. There were no rules on your choice of medium. Instead, the aim of the challenge was on the creative process and pushing ourselves to think differently.

Over the 9-week journey we worked on developing our creative capacities with a new focus each week:

  • Week 1: Making the commitment; Starting from where you are
  • Week 2: Trying new creative tools & exploring dormant creative channels
  • Week 3: Sharing your creative stories
  • Week 4: Rejuvenation & Reflection
  • Week 5: Embracing an interdisciplinary approach
  • Week 6: Taking creative risks
  • Week 7: Investigation & Being Curious
  • Week 8: Building Endurance
  • Week 9: Maintain Your Momentum
