The program is the latest offering of the School of Design Strategies at Parsons, which encompasses innovative programs that apply design thinking to study the intersection of cities, services and ecosystems.
To celebrate the launch, the School of Design Strategies is presenting a series of programming this spring. The Stephan Weiss Lecture Series will feature conversations around design for a complex world. This includes a March 25 program with Andrew Blauvelt, design director and curator of the Walker Art Center and eating designer Marije Vogelzang, principal of the Amsterdam-based design studios Proef and Studio Marjie Vogelzang; and on April 6, Natalie Jeremijenko, director of the xdesign Environmental Health Clinic at New York University and Nigel Snoad, technical evangelist and product manager for the Microsoft Public Safety Initiative.
In addition, on March 26, Parsons will present “HeadSpace: On Scent As Design,” a one-day symposium with The Museum of Modern Art in partnership with International Flavors & Fragrances Inc., which will bring together leading design thinkers, scientists, artists, architects, perfumers and designers to explore the untapped medium of scent as a new territory for design.
