Interior lifestyle Shanghai - 'On Design'
Doshi Levien were invited to speak in Shanghai as part of Messe Frankfurt's initiative to promote value of design in China.
Nipa Doshi's lecture title ' Design identities for a connected world' explored the idea of authentic plurality in design and globalisation as the perfect opportunity for an equal exchange of cultures.
In China, “Design” becomes more important than ever before among companies in any industries. The companies are trying to differentiate themselves by adding exclusive value at their products with “Design.”
Starting in 2008, the concept of “On Design” was transported from Ambiente Frankfurt to Interior Lifestyle China. International and Chinese designers share their knowledge and know how with interested trade buyers.
