Design in the Middle is a five-day interdisciplinary workshop (March 1-5) that will provide the opportunity for a select group of architects, designers and artists from the Middle East to work together for the first time. The term “Middle” points to the Middle East and the Eastern Coast of the Mediterranean to emphasise the marked geopolitical character of the project. Professionals from the Middle East with a direct experience of the area will work together to develop innovative proposals for the area.

 

Design in the Middle is a project developed by the Fondazione MAXXI and School of Redesign in collaboration with the Fondazione Baruchello and the Fondazione Mondo Digitale.

 

Mirta Michilli, Director General, Fondazione Mondo Digitale, will speak at the workshop this afternoon.

During the workshop, the participants will be divided into five groups. Each group will have all the creative tools necessary to devise innovative solutions to long-term issues such as border skirmishes, water sources, freedom of movement, religious differences, linguistic barriers, information sharing and cultural exchanges. The solutions developed during the workshop will be published in a catalogue and presented at a travelling exhibition.
