Nevertheless new ideas and many social changes are being sparked from below – the buzzing creative and interdisciplinary initiatives. Therefore Integrated wants to stimulate new thought patterns from a committed standpoint, providing a platform for the diverse but very interesting visions of designers, artists, architects and philosophers on how we can develop a new and sustainable dynamic in tomorrow’s society. Sometimes genuinely visionary and barely feasible today, but often also very concrete and usable immediately.
Gathering around 30 speakers, Integrated will feature talks by graphic designer and partner at Pentagram Harry Pearce, architect and prizewinning book designer Joost Grootens, illustrator Jordy van den Nieuwendijk, the renowned Studio Dumbar, Tim Fendley from Applied Wayfinding, art director at Sid Lee and Queen of Tumblr 2014 Cecilia Azcarate, illustrator, painter and set designer Paul Cox, Ippolito Pestellini Laparelli from OMA, print factory Kastaar, graphic designer collective Syndicat, Thierry Brunfaut from Base Design and many more. Lecture series will be interrupted by intermezzos offering 6 intriguing micro–lectures, innovative student performances, recent graduate projects and other visual mayhem per day. Moreover, the guests will be treated with music performances, a continuous installation of video art, various media presentations and exhibitions.
