International Design Week

Institute of Design & Communication

Dates: May 9th - 16th 2025

The 4th edition of the International Design Week at the Institute of Design & Communication, FH JOANNEUM University of Applied Sciences will take place from May 9^th to 16^th, 2025, in Graz/Austria. Following the success of our previous themes, we now delve into the complex layers of unCOMMON underGROUND in the fields of Communication, Media, Sound, Interaction, and Exhibition Design. The event includes a special invitation to the Grand Opening of the festival “Design Month Graz 2025” by Creative Industries Styria.

As one of 49 UNESCO Cities of Design worldwide, the city of Graz tries to create awareness for design, art, and culture, making them visible and perceivable in our society. Every year in May, the Design Month Graz brings together the design scene, promoting regional, national, and international networking. Our institute, one of the largest at the FH JOANNEUM, is happy to once again host international experts and contribute to the creative dynamics of the city of Graz.

We are looking for innovative and thought-provoking sessions that explore and dissect the multiple layers of “common ground,” “underground,” and the “uncommon.” Workshops should encourage students to critically engage with topics like design and politics, communication and media ethics, misinformation, cultural exchange, and the creative spaces in between.

We invite lecturers/teaching staff around the world to submit a proposal for a 4-day workshop until February 5^th, 2025.
