10th Sept-8th March/Designers in Residence 2014: Disruption/Design Museum/London

Last day to attend Design in Residence 2014:Disruption at Design Museum.

Designers in Residence is about more than good design, or even innovation in design. It is about creating time and space in the form of a seven-month residency — and giving four UK-based designers a period of reflection, research and critical rigour away from their normal routine.

Now in its seventh year, Designers in Residence invites young designers to respond to a brief set by Deyan Sudjic, the Director of the Design Museum. For 2014, this theme is disruption. “More than most, ‘disruptive’ is a term whose meaning is dependent on the context,” says Deyan. “It’s conventionally considered almost a bad thing — difficult pupils, bad neighbours, ill-considered town planning — it is now the most sought after quality in a new product.”

The four new works that form the Designers in Residence exhibition all have disruption at their core, yet each designer has taken a markedly different approach.
