On the Institute without Boundaries:

“The Institute comprises of a post-graduate program that teaches design collaboration to professionals from diverse backgrounds; a research division, which conducts applied research on global issues; and a think tank, which offers design consultation to clients.

Our inaugural project, Massive Change, explored and sparked a discourse on the future of global design. Our second project, World House, confronts the evolution of shelter for coming generations incorporating principles of sustainabillity, accessibility, technological responsiveness and ecological balance.

At the Institute, we see the designer as a problem solver with the ability to effect positive change for humanity. We envision a place where students, teachers, industry and community experts can come together not only as creators and designers, but also as ambassadors of hope. We imagine how to live, learn, work, and play together as a global community. Our goal is to find alternative development patterns and a viable path to a bright future.”
