EDRA47RALEIGH

EDRA47Raleigh – Innovation: Shifting Ground will take place on May 18th-21st in Raleigh, North Carolina, United States. There is a transition underway in the design industries, boosted by economic forces, emerging societal challenges, and advances in design research. Whether unsettling or affirming, this shift is changing the tectonics of design research, design delivery, and education in ways that can quickly make current and commonplace approaches outdated. What are examples of these shifts? Shifting VALUE; Shifting METHODS; Shifting PRACTICE; Shifting SPECTRUM; and Shifting LEXICON.

For forty-seven years, the Environmental Design Research Association has been the international leader and community for design research on all environments. For EDRA47, EDRA comes home to its birthplace Raleigh, North Carolina, to convene a global look at the driving force of innovation in environmental design-you. How is your work shifting your field? This will be your chance to tell the world.
