&narrative

Design always begins with a narrative ~ … ~ and gets concrete through interactions, artefacts, environments, infrastructures, experiences and stories.

At narrative.in, we explore narrative modes in relation to multiple areas, as a narrative lab, a storytelling fab. Stories provide structure for shaping and sharing knowledge in multiple ways. These reveal connections between seemingly disconnected information and allow to experience knowledge in expansion.

Narrative in design/ing ~ 

  • Design: noun – the intent, the process, the output, the outcome ~ 
  • Designing: verb – the action ~

Connecting multiple notions of narrative with diverse conceptions of designerly activities is the focus here. A focus in fuzzy zones of knowledge, culture, perception, habits, trends, and much more. We know we don’t know, so let’s get “en voyage”.
