Why collaboration? Design is now considered a team endeavor where collaboration is crucial to achieve innovative results inclusive of cultures and mediums. Designers are crossing boundaries and are participating in creative interdisciplinary teams addressing broad issues of communication, space, systems thinking, cultural identity, style and business. Designers have become instrumental in affecting change on a global level.

Mousharaka | Icograda Design Week in Qatar will bring together practitioners, scholars, and students across design disciplines, cultures and regions to build bridges, raise awareness of the importance and promise of collaboration, and create bonds necessary to achieve the full potential of design in the Gulf region.

Plan to join us for this first Icograda Design Week of 2009.
