A prologue to the Design Summit (DS01) was held at SVAD-BNU at Tarogil Camous, yesterday (April 21, 2018).

The School of Visual Arts & Design at Beaconhouse National University (BNU-SVAD) and Lahore University of Management Sciences (LUMS) co-hosted the event. The seminar took place as the inaugural event for the Design Summit 01 (DS01) to be held in Fall 2018. 

A unique event (and the first one of its kind), it brought together a range of design disciplines under one conceptual roof to generate a much needed critical discourse on design. The Design Summit as an inclusionary body, aims to continue supplementing design academia as well as the design industry at large, and facilitating a cross-disciplinary discourse with leading professionals and stakeholders of the region

Seeking new perspectives, the School has welcomed partnerships and collaboration with other academic institutions and independent creative practices to be active participants in various capacities in a series of ongoing yearly events under the Banner of Design Summit.
