Cité du design - Bâtiments H

The Dream Team exhibition brings together a selection of work carried out by students of design departments of five European schools: the Royal Academy of Fine Arts, Anvers (fashion); the Royal College of Art, London (interaction design); the Sandberg Institute, Amsterdam (Graphics); the Master "Space & Communication" at the HEAD, Geneva and the "Industrial Design" section of the ESAD, Saint Etienne; presented in an agora by Adrien Rovero, these creations are being shown together for the first time.

The Dream Team takes a new look at « Design Empathy » invented by architect Richard Neutra, who developed this concept after observing Sigmund Freud's furniture and the way he used it to arouse processes of free association in his patients. Once installed on the west coast of the United States, Neutra "took into account the emotional, psychological and environmental demands"; to conceive empathy design. The exhibition revisits this concept by developing the question of the vertigo of senses, of the subconscious and hypnosis.
