Unlocking creativity
Explore the future of UX design
Join us as we partner with Alicia Shao, Senior Service Designer at The LEGO Group, to explore how speculative design, systems thinking, and storytelling shape our visions of the future.
Drawing from her course “Welcome to Mars,” Alicia Shao, Senior Service Designer at The LEGO Group, will showcase how speculative design, systems thinking, and storytelling shape our visions of the future.
Throughout the course, she delved into life on the red planet alongside students from the Köln International School of Design. She is now prepared to share the insights gained during this journey, recounting how she and the students unlocked their creativity to shape a new world.
By delving into potential futures from predictive, explorative, and normative perspectives, as well as highlighting the tools employed along the way, you’ll gain insights into the diverse lenses that enable us to anticipate, discover, and influence what lies ahead.
Furthermore, you’ll get the opportunity to engage with fellow enthusiasts, exchange visionary ideas, and foster connections that bridge the gap between the present and the future.
