Objectar el Món is an event based around the role of designers in tackling the key problem of our time: the need to rethink ways of coexistence between human and non-human forms of life with the goal of ensuring their – and our – survival.
To this end, we invited product design professionals to bring an object that, in their opinion, meets the material, functional, methodological, consumption or production characteristics needed in order to cease the destruction of the environment, or even initiate processes to restore it. All the objects were exhibited to form a heterogeneous landscape that gives testimony to the diversity of problems we face, and also, the variety of positions we have to face them. A group of experts from different fields guided us through this landscape to broaden the common perspectives of the design scene on issues related to ecology.
Participants: Adolfo Abejón, Alejandra Perini, Angel Valiente Studio for Design, Antoni Arola, Aya Ulan, Boaz Katz, Emiliana Design Studio, Goula / Figuera Studio, Guillem Ferran, Ibai Velilla, Isaac Piñeiro, Javier Mariscal, Jordi Canudas, Julen Ussia, Jeannette Altherr (Lievore + Altherr Désile Park), Marta Ayala Herrera, Martín Azúa, Max Enrich, Max Milà Serra, Nahtrang Studio, Nutcreatives, Oblicuas, Oriol Gener, Pablo Santos, Raquel Llaberia, Sanna Völker, Sebastian Alberdi and Stefano Colli.
Speakers: Ariadna Parreu, Daniel Barbé Farré, Laura Clèries and Raul Garcia Lozano.
Support: Barcelona Design Week, ADI-FAD, Elisava Alumni, Departament de Cultura, Arts Santa Mònica, Honext, Cervezas Alhambra.
Graphics: Pablo Silván Asperilla and Mar Ferrer Ferrer.
