Design elite launches "International Design Action Day"

Strike day The "International Design Action Day" is to be celebrated on June 21 in future, as decided by the participants of the fourth St. Moritz Design Summit. Design is in danger of degenerating into a "pseudo-innovation machine" under the prevailing conditions of the market economy, the 30 prominent designers state in a declaration. The world is being flooded with offers that nobody has been waiting for. A design strike is to be held on June 21 to protest against this. All signatories have pledged to put their day-to-day business to one side on this day and instead evaluate old projects, observe people, organize a demonstration for better design or turn blue. At the end of March, the proposal manual will be published on Raymondloe wyfoundation.com.
