„How to teach graphic design“

Our last CreativeMornings with Ingmar Thies was very inspiring and we were able to learn a lot.

Ingmar is not only teaching at die Angewandte he also published a new book “how to teach graphic design”.

How do I teach design? Why is listening so important? What can we learn from other disciplines and cultures and from each other?

Answers and suggestions are offered by Sven Ingmar Thies and his 24 interview partners, who are all united by one will: their students should experiment, experience and develop themselves. Teachers of graphic design, design theory, game development, industrial design and behavioural research from China, Germany, Great Britain, Japan, Austria and the USA have their say.

The in-depth discussions are complemented by comprehensive reflection and sample assignments.

At the end of Ingmars talk the question came up - if it is not much more. Because the topic is bigger than the title promises. It’s about teaching, about perspectives and about wanting to communicate.

A very great event in the beautiful Studio Tausendzueins.

Many thanks to all involved and especially Ingmar for his insights.
