Studio背景


This design competition—the third in the LA+ international series—asks whether we can live with animals in new ways, whether we can transcend the dualism of decimation on the one hand and protection on the other, and how we can use design to open our cities, our landscapes, and our minds to a more symbiotic existence with other creatures.

Studio内容


课程目的: 


LA+ CREATURE竞赛要求参赛者及作品做到以下几点:

首先,选择一个非人类生物作为你的设计对象(物种、体型、地区不限),并确定它的需求(能量,庇护所,繁殖,运动,交流,环境,等等)。

其次,设计(或重新设计)一个场所、结构、产品、系统或过程,以改善设计对象的生活。

第三,你的设计必须在某种程度上提高人们对该对象存在的意识和同理心。


The LA+ CREATURE design ideas competition asks entrants to do three things:

· First, choose a nonhuman creature as your client (any species, any size, anywhere) and identify its needs (energy, shelter, procreation, movement, interaction, environment, etc.).

· Second, design (or redesign) a place, structure, thing, system, and/or process that improves your client’s life.

· Third, your design must, in some way, increase human awareness of and empathy towards your client’s existence.
