The DEMO series unites the best in product design

From the 27th of February to the 8th of March the series will host conferences, workshops and other activities featuring the latest innovations in this creative professional sector

DEMO, a product design series intended to disseminate new approaches and technologies relating to product conception and manufacturing processes. As its title indicated, the series is designed to serve as a testing platform for joint exploration into both the opportunities offered by the sector as well as the alignment between industry, craftsmanship, experimentation and multidisciplinary creativity.

Organised by the industrial design association ADI-FAD, the aim of DEMO is to offer both sector professionals and the general public an opportunity to acquaint themselves with the new approaches in product design and incorporate them into their own projects.

For a period of 10 days, and under the title “Exploring new creative processes”, the DEMO programme of activities will include workshops, conferences, presentations and informal chats. Highlights of the programme include a manufacturing performance by the design studio breadedEscalope, an Internet of Things workshop exploring the relationship between everyday existence and the new technologies, and a joint project featuring the ‘churros’ (fritters) manufacturer Comaxurros and a number of product design studios focussing on redesigning the shape and concept of the ‘churro’.

The series will also include a number of conferences, such as those featuring interactive artist Mónica Rikić or designer Peter Marigold. In others events, Xavier Mora will speak about Voltasol, an experiment involving flower pots that move in accordance with the sun’s trajectory, and the collective The Creator’s Project, who will be showing a number of videos.
