This inspiring collaboration originated during an Erasmus teaching mobility in February 2024, when Anika Kronberger<\/a> (Institute of Design & Communication, FH JOANNEUM) conducted a workshop in Lahti on Augmented Reality for designers. At the same time, the Finnish partners at LAB University of Applied Sciences Lahti<\/a> were developing a course concept focused on radical innovation and interdisciplinary and international cooperation<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The benefits<\/strong> for our Design students were immediately clear, and the Institute of Design and Communication joined the initiative with enthusiasm.<\/p>\n

A Week of Speculative Design at CERN IdeaSquare<\/h4>\n

As part of the i2P Design for Future Program<\/a>—jointly hosted by CERN IdeaSquare<\/a>, LAB Lahti, and FH JOANNEUM—four Interaction Design<\/a> students traveled to Geneva in April 2025 for an intensive project week. In collaboration with students from Finland, they developed speculative concepts for human settlement on Proxima Centauri B,<\/strong> guided by input from CERN<\/a> and NASA Innovative Advanced Concepts (NIAC).<\/a><\/p>\n

Focus Topics of the Project<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Working in interdisciplinary teams, students explored four key aspects<\/strong> of space living:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Communal and Individual Spaces<\/li>\n
  • Collaboration & Conflict Transformation<\/li>\n
  • Resource Management<\/li>\n
  • Social Living and Wellbeing<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Through workshops, collaborative ideation, and interim presentations, the students developed early-stage concepts for space habitation. This international collaboration will continue over the coming weeks as teams refine their ideas.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
