In a design world marked by profit and rapid output, our connections to the environment and to each other splinter. Die Quittung is an invitation to design students to break out of this formed mindset and to direct their attention to acting attentively within a network of interdependencies.
The installative interaction interrupts the customary working process in the studio and confronts the students with provocative contemplative questions. Using analogous proofs and emblems, a growing collective archive of responsibility emerges. The goal is to reclaim design as shared caring practice.
The project creates an awareness for systematic responsibility in design, and as such ties in directly with SDG 4.7.
