Report of the 『d desgn travel』 lecture and workshop

A lecture and workshop in which participants think about the characteristics of their own region from the perspective of design was held the other day, in preparation for the creation of the Fukuoka edition, scheduled to be published in June.
The event reached its capacity immediately after we started recruiting participants, and was a great success.
