Teaching Design Conversations at A–Z Berlin

In January 2020, the concept of Teaching Design came to life in an exhibition at the A to Z Gallery in Berlin – called Teaching Design CONVERSATIONS. We created a space where people could come together, browse through the physical library, sit down for a tea, share experiences, stage public readings and offer workshops on design education. In this format, the focus was on conversations, building networks, collective reflection and providing a space for perspectives that are not heard enough.

The books accessible in the temporary library came from local libraries and bookshops and people who were willing to lend their books for a while. The is idea is to travel with this concept and by that expand the bibliography as well as the networks of people participating. This means that each version of the library offers a different selection of publications influenced by the people, context and focus within design teaching and beyond.
