The Master’s Degree in Design X Other Species responds to the need of protecting the environment by adopting transdisciplinary design as a cultural and ecological practice aimed at fostering conditions of coexistence for, with, and by other living species.
Through participatory design methodologies involving collaboration with experts from fields such as ecology, ethology, environmental humanities, and sociology, the programme fosters an innovative dialogue that considers other species not as subjects of study but as equal participants in design and research processes.
Students learn to develop ethical design practices that account for complex ecological interactions, the rights of other living beings, and the consequences of their interventions on natural systems. This reflective design approach combines scientific, ethical, aesthetic, and design perspectives in a profoundly integrated manner.
Participants engage with real-world contexts, gaining the opportunity to design, prototype, and test projects, products, and devices that support multispecies coexistence. Examples include integrated living spaces for humans and non-humans, regenerative projects aimed at biodiversity enhancement, and products designed to aid the repopulation of endangered species while maintaining ecosystem balance.
Upon completion of the programme, participants will be prepared to work in research and development (R&D) centres for institutions and companies or pursue academic research opportunities, engaging at all scales of design. They may also embark on individual artistic careers aimed at cultivating a shared culture of planetary coexistence.
