Showcase Presentation

Join us in this day full of discussions on digital design.

We don't simply present you our work; we discuss it.

Six session. Six themes.

At each session, both guests and students present work related to the topic and discuss with you the underlying challenges and questions the projects brought forward.

You may join online at any time for free.
