Meet the 2023/24 Design Researchers in Residence during this lunchtime tour of Solar, a display of their design research work responding to the climate emergency.
Join Design Researchers in Residence April Barrett, Eliza Collin, Jamie Gatty Irving and Freya Spencer-Wood, and Future Observatory curator George Kafka for a tour of Solar.
Solar brings together the work of the four researchers completed during their eight-month residencies at the museum. The projects featured in the display explore our changing relationships with the heat and light of the sun through multidisciplinary and collaborative works touching on the heat of the internet, the changing scents of plants, the architecture of the conservatory and the contested restoration of Scotland’s peat lands.
Design Researchers in Residence is Future Observatory’s programme for emerging design researchers hosted at the Design Museum.
