The Stage

As graduates investigate the role of design in shaping reality through an increasingly diverse range of practices, we need new ways of presenting these expanded definitions of design to the world. The Stage is the Graduation Show’s new platform, offering a digitally-mediated environment alongside the physical exhibition of projects and the Arena’s programme of live talks and debates challenging and extending contemporary design discourse. Twenty-five of the 163 graduates are presenting on The Stage. It also forms the site for the Arena; the Graduation Show’s programme of live talks and debates. (Live Broadcast Camera by Erick Hille).
