A design doing workshop for the science community | Melbourne Design Week

What happens when designers and scientists join forces?

A critical intersection for creating the sustainable, regenerative future our world needs. As part of Melbourne Design Week 2025's theme, 'Design the World You Want,' Colabs and Your Creative are hosting a workshop that bridges the gap between scientific innovation and communication design.

Design doing, not just design thinking

This isn't your typical ideation session. Our workshop brings together designers, strategists, and scientists for a day of "design doing"—a hands-on approach that moves beyond theory into practical application.

Participants will:

• Form cross-disciplinary teams pairing designers with scientists
• Engage in design mapping and making processes
• Develop key messaging frameworks that translate complex scientific concepts into compelling narratives
• Create campaign concepts that elevate science from the sidelines to center stage

Join us for this collaborative session where science becomes the hero and design becomes the storyteller it deserves.
