Design Society’s Residency program aims to not just create, but to create with society in mind. Our program presents spaces for designers, artists, performers and researchers to create within the building itself, while our collection-based and temporary exhibitions, as well as our many events and programs, will inspire and stimulate our residents to create and refine their practice. The program is also a unique opportunity for visitors to come into contact with the actual creative process and a unique opportunity for creative professionals to engage with audiences. The residency also functions as a matchmaker, where design professionals are connected with others, to create designs always greater than the sum of their parts.
