Designing Through Story: How Narrative Shapes Experience
Design is rarely only about appearance - it’s about the stories behind what we create and the legacies they leave. This panel explores how leading practitioners use narrative, context, and meaning to craft experiences that resonate deeply with audiences across Aotearoa New Zealand and beyond.
From physical products and digital interfaces to immersive spatial environments, we examine how storytelling elevates design from functional to truly memorable. Learn how to embed a cohesive narrative into your work - bridging architectural intent and human connection, and ensuring every decision contributes to a deeper, more meaningful purpose.
