<設計x城市 Design for City>

在當今的世界，無論線上還是線下，人們每天都被大量的視覺信息淹沒。作為設計師，我們肩負著減少這種視覺雜亂的責任，致力於創造清晰且和諧的設計，並提供系統化的解決方案。我們在大型項目中的豐富經驗，尤其是城市視覺識別的設計，幫助城市有效整合其視覺資源，通過功能性導向系統和標識設計，優化城市空間，提升市民的日常體驗。這場演講將探討如何運用設計的力量，解決現代社會中的視覺過載問題，同時展現我們如何通過設計為城市帶來整潔、功能性與美感兼具的視覺環境。

In today's world, people are constantly bombarded with an overwhelming amount of visual messages, both online and offline. As designers, we believe it is our responsibility to reduce this visual clutter by creating clear, harmonious designs and systematic solutions. Our expertise in large-scale projects, such as creating graphic identities for cities, allows us to help cities organize their visual materials and enhance urban spaces with functional signage and wayfinding systems.

<設計x社會 Design for Society >

此場演講將聚焦於過去五到六年間Tofu Studio在波蘭完成的三個極具影響力的專案。首先是為格但斯克市(City Of Gdańsk)打造的兩個重要項目：「格但斯克清潔城市」，專為城市垃圾管理而設計，旨在提升城市環境；「格但斯克平等城市」，這是一場推廣平等權利的社會運動，倡導包容、多樣性、接納與彼此尊重。最後分享Tofu Studio 參與的非營利案子，致力於支持波蘭的社會慈善機構，如 UNICEF 波蘭、KRWINKA 基金會和 Empowering Children 基金會，通過創新設計助力他們的慈善使命，讓社會更美好。

On my speech I’ll focus on three project that we have realized in last 5 or 6 years in Poland. Two of them where prepared for the City Of Gdańsk: Gdańsk Clean City dedicated to organization responsible for effective waste management in the city. Gdańsk, the City of Equality – social campaign dedicated to equal rights based on tolerance, diversity, acceptance, respect for each other. The last project is a non profit activities of our studio connected with supporting of Polish social foundations that we have choose for that kind of cooperation, like UNICEF Poland, KRWINKA Foundation or Empowering Children Foundation.

<設計x公共服務 Design for Public Service >

尋路系統不僅是塑造空間的一部分，更是幫助使用者理解如何在空間中導航的關鍵。當尋路系統設計完善時，空間就變得更加友善且舒適。那麼，什麼樣的系統才稱得上是設計完善？又如何判斷一個系統設計不佳？影響我們在空間中辨識資訊的因素有哪些？尋路系統包含哪些要素？這些問題我將在講座中一一解答。

Wayfinding system as an element creating the space, but above all as an element informing the users how to navigate themselves in the space. With a well designed system, the space becomes user-friendly and comfortable.

What doer it mean that a system is well designed? When can we say that the system is poorly designed? What influences the legibility of the information we see in the spaces? What elements doer the wayfinding system consist of? I will answer these questions in the lecture.
 

<設計x公共空間 Design for Public Space>

Gdynia Design Days 如何改變公共空間？這個設計節如何融入城市生活？我們該如何為市民設計，與他們對話並共同打造解決方案？又如何創造對人和城市都有益的設計？Gdynia Design Days 是由 Gdynia 設計中心主辦的城市設計節，將 Gdynia 市作為發展的核心。我們從本地出發，逐步推動全球變革。因此，我們積極參與 Gdynia 的各項計劃，支持三城地區的設計師，並與當地機構緊密合作，共同塑造未來的城市設計。

How Gdynia Design Days is shaping public space? How the festival is present in the city? How to design for citizens, leading the dialogue and building solutions with them? How to create design good for people and the city?
Gdynia Design Days is a municipal festival, organized by Gdynia Design Centre. The city of Gdynia is a point of reference. By acting on local ground, we can gradually make global changes. That is why we get involved in Gdynia projects, support Tri-City designers and cooperate with local institutions.
 

<設計x字體 Design for Typography >

波蘭設計以波蘭海報學派聞名，這確實是其重要的代表作之一。然而，Mateusz Machalski 希望在講座中呈現波蘭字體設計的歷史，透過一年多深入研究與探索所揭示的研究成果。研究過程中發現，地緣政治的變遷、藝術潮流以及多元文化社群對波蘭字體設計的發展有著深遠的影響。Mateusz 也將分享他的個人見解，認為要推動設計的創新與發展，必須先了解自身的根源與這一領域的歷史背景。

Polish design is known primarily for the Polish poster school. Of course, it is important, but I wanted to show the history of Polish typography during the lecture, which we discovered for over a year during research on the index of Polish typography. It is interesting how geopolitical changes, artistic trends and multicultural communities influenced the development of this field in Poland. The lecture will also be my own opinion that in order to develop, you need to know your roots and the history of the discipline.
 

<設計x教育 Design for Education>

在這次演講中，Zosia Dzierzawska 將分享她在教育領域的工作目標，傳遞既有效又富有趣味的內容。她巧妙結合對故事敘述的熱情與對角色、情感及細節的敏銳洞察，創造出讓兒童與青少年沉浸其中的世界，讓他們在學習中感受到探索的樂趣，而非說教或壓力。每一個項目都像是精心設計的拼圖，不僅需要巧妙組織嚴肅且細緻的資訊，更以引人入勝的方式呈現，讓學習過程既有趣又充滿探索的可能性。

The aim of my work within the education sector is to communicate in a way that is both effective and fun. I will explain how I bring together my passion for storytelling and an eye for character, emotion and detail to create immersive worlds that children and young people can explore without feeling patronised or overwhelmed. Each assignment is a balancing act, a puzzle, an exercise in organising often serious, detailed information in a way that is exciting to discover and explore. 
 

<設計x文化社會組織 Design for Cultural Institutions and Social Organizations >

當談到設計時，Kuki Krzysztof Iwański 強調現代社會充斥著快節奏的消遣與短暫的潮流，如無止境的短視頻，以及無盡的滑動刷屏。我們提供的，是片刻的快樂、無盡的滑動和瞬間的流行，但這些不應該是文化機構和社會組織設計的終極目標。相反，我們需要放慢腳步，專注於創造具有持久價值的設計。目標是打造能促進真實人際連結，並回應深層社會需求的空間，而不僅僅是滿足功能需求。這樣的設計應該能啟發心靈，成為人們聚集、交流與成長的場所，而不是簡單地消耗流行或追逐短暫的潮流。

We sell pills to pop, tiks to tok, and endless scrolling, but design for cultural institutions and social organizations should aim for more. Instead of quick distractions, we need to slow down and create lasting value. The goal is to build spaces that foster real human connection and reflect deeper societal needs. It’s about designing places that inspire, not just serve a purpose, where people can come together, engage, and grow, rather than just consume what's trendy and temporary.We sell pills to pop, tiks to tok, and endless scrolling, but design for cultural institutions and social organizations should aim for more.

<設計x未來 Design for Future>  Engaging AI in Design Education

Jakub Koźniewski 是 panGenerator 的聯合創辦人。在演講中，他將分享團隊的設計理念與一些重要作品。panGenerator 致力於探索創意表達和與觀眾互動的新方式，他們的作品獨具特色，將短暫的數位世界與實體環境相結合，創造出動態、具體且引人入勝的體驗，打破傳統現代藝術的靜態和距離感。團隊堅信，藝術需要一個精心設計且易於使用的介面，讓觀眾能更輕鬆地融入其中。

I'll be discussing our approach and some of our key projects at panGenerator. We focus on exploring new ways of creative expression and interaction with audiences. Our work stands out by merging the ephemeral digital realm with the physical world, resulting in experiences that are dynamic, tangible, and engaging, unlike the static, unapproachable conventions of conventional modern art. We believe that art needs a well designed user-friendly interface.
