(3.3) IMAGINE: Coral Reef. Transformative Design Talk

“Coral Reef” is an exhibition project by EOOS NEXT and the Institute for Design Research Vienna. The coral reef serves as a metaphor and inspiration for research into “regenerative design”, a design strategy that goes far beyond the concepts of sustainable or Circular Design.

The first event in the context of the IMAGINE: Coral Reef.Regenrative Design project was the Research Talk at the Innovation Hub Berlin. Together with experts from design research and regenerative leadership, a fishbowl discussion took a look into the future and explored the topic.
