The cooperation between FH JOANNEUM and LAB University of Applied Sciences Lahti<\/a> began in February 2024 as part of an Erasmus teaching mobility programme. During a stay in Lahti, Anika Kronberger<\/a> (Institute of Design & Communication) led a workshop on the topic of “Augmented Reality for Designers.” In this context, the foundation for a deeper collaboration was laid. Already during the visit, the Finnish partner university developed a course concept focusing on radical innovation, interdisciplinary collaboration, and international exchange.<\/p>\n

12 students from Finland and four students from the Interaction Design programme at FH JOANNEUM were able to participate in the project.<\/p>\n

A Week of Science, Numbers and Speculative Design at CERN IdeaSquare<\/h3>\n

A definite highlight was a week spent at the innovation lab IdeaSquare at CERN<\/a> in Geneva. Together, the students developed concepts for a hypothetical settlement of the exoplanet Proxima Centauri B – with expert support from CERN and NASA Innovative Advanced Concepts (NIAC).<\/a><\/p>\n

In interdisciplinary teams, four central dimensions of future life in space were addressed:<\/p>\n
