WorkShop: Şule Koç
25–26 February 2026, 13.00-15.00
Inviting participants to think through speculative design and fictional objects, this WorkShop focuses on concept development and narrative-building processes on the first day. Centered on generating ideas for “fictional objects,” the WorkShop uses irony as a mode of expression in design. Participants examine how contemporary social and technological dynamics shape everyday life and human behavior, develop speculative scenarios, and materialize these scenarios through design ideas.
