This Blended Intensive Programme introduces students to art thinking and design thinking as complementary approaches to creativity, problem-solving and innovation. The programme is structured in two phases. The first focuses on art thinking, encouraging experimentation, sensory exploration and critical reflection through hands-on workshops led by an artist. The second phase introduces design thinking in collaboration with an international company, guiding students through user-centred research, ideation and prototyping to develop concrete solutions.
Program
Overall, the summer school seeks to bridge artistic exploration and applied innovation, helping participants understand how creative practices can generate value in cultural, social, and economic environments.
