The Design

About Designthinkers Konferencematerialer

Formålet er at skabe raffinerede konferencematerialer, der harmonerer med det årlige tema. Designverdenen ligner ofte en labyrint, hvor designere navigerer gennem indviklede stier, møder fejlagtige veje, uforudsete konklusioner og uudforskede territorier. Liying Wang bestræber sig på at anvende labyrinten som en symbolsk repræsentation af designrejsens kompleksitet. Gennem denne tilgang visualiseres den indviklede design- og kreative proces med det formål at vække tilsvarende følelser hos publikum.

Design Challenge
How can creating a novel visual system for the conference cater to the needs and interests of the majority of attendees, while simultaneously aiding the organization in increasing attendance and achieving its mission of enhancing awareness of visual communication? Additionally, how can the process of design and creativity be visually depicted to evoke comparable emotions and responses from the intended audience? I keep asking myself those questions and thinking about what symbol or element can build connections and evoke the audience's similar feelings.
Research
Designthinkers is an annual conference with a mission to gather diverse perspectives to explore the process of design and creativity. The theme for 2018 is Speak The Truth. The whole design process is like an unknown journey, like a maze. We don't know what will happen at the next intersection. Designers like those little magenta dots, going on the road of our own choice.
Inspiration
Design is like a maze, with unpredictable twists and turns, where each decision can make or break a project. To capture this, I created a visual representation of the design process as a maze, symbolizing the confusion and challenges designers face, with every decision leading to a different outcome. It encourages pushing boundaries and finding innovative solutions while celebrating the creative process and its rewarding challenges. The design guides us through the maze, highlighting the endless possibilities that come with our work.
Project Duration
The project started in September 2018 and finished in December 2018 in San Francisco.
Operation Flow
Various deliverables were developed for the conference, including a promotion poster, program, website, application, name badge, and conference signage.
