This year's theme for @InternationalDesignDay asks creative thinkers to consider kindness as a design principle. According to the International Council on Design, developing a "kindness standard" starts with asking a few questions about how an object is developed, produced, and used.⁠ ⁠ NOMA's decorative arts and design galleries include objects created around the world across centuries, in many different contexts. We encourage you to look at the guiding questions below on your next visit to begin considering how kindness might be embedded throughout the material world. 👇⁠ ⁠ 1️⃣ Who is being considered by this object's design, and who is left out?⁠ 2️⃣ Whose future was/will be affected by this object, and how?⁠ 3️⃣ How much harmony did this design in the past? What about now and in future?⁠ 4️⃣ What kind of world does this design uphold or imagine anew?⁠ ⁠ #IsItKind #IDD2024 #InternationalDesignDay @theicod⁠ —⁠ 📸: @ghost_inthecity
