In the past year, our lives were overturned by the spread of the Covid-19 virus and measures to contain it. In times where we are separated from loved ones and confined to our home, maintaining our well-being becomes even more crucial and challenging. Despite the circumstances, increasing our happiness is something that we can control through our intentional activities. The aim of the workshop will be exploring how design can play a role in fostering happiness.
The workshop kicks off with keynote presentations to introduce the theme and inspire the students. Students will work in interdisciplinary and international teams and reflect on what happiness means to them and explore how this vision can be translated into a “pavilion” experience. The workshop culminates with a presentation of the concept and a wooden prototype of the pavilion.
