UK DESIGN IN CHINA EVENT – LONDON DESIGN WEEK 2008

We have been running design workshops for Chinese companies and individuals for nearly two years now. As well as introducing western creative thinking and design techniques we have been documenting the different approaches between China and Europe and learning about the motivations, aspirations and values of Chinese designers and how these differ from the west.

Our recent presentation in the UK was titled ‘UK Design in China’ and focused on our own experiences and findings in China. Together with a panel of experts we discussed what the UK Creative Industry can achieve in China and what kind of boundaries may need to be taken into consideration for designers and businesses alike.

Thanks to all the workshop participants for their time and effort.
