the nature and potential of Food Design research to promote a local and
global evolution.

The conference is also open to non-paper presenters and we would encourage
participation from non-academic sectors such as civil society, private
sector, public administration and the media.
The conference proceedings will be published and a selection of the best
papers will be used towards a publication of a book on Food Design (by ADI).
*CALL FOR POSTERS*
Food concepts beyond the table. Food design is the design segment where
food is central, and which focuses primarily on topics related to the
preparation of edible products.
It is not merely about designing tableware/wear and eating tools but about
shaping new lifestyles and ways of approaching food starting from raw
materials and thus new agricultural models, nutritional values and
improvement of eating habits, and discussion of cross- cultural influences
and food fusions.
This call is for young designers from all over the world. The scientific
committee will select projects that provide the broadest possible vision of
food design including communication and packaging design, the design of
places for consumption, with ideas on eating on the move or at the office.
The projects may include items already produced as well as experimental
concepts (university research projects or works in progress)
A 120 -minute poster session will provide an interactive forum for authors
to discuss their work.
Presenters will be assigned locations to put up their posters, which will
be organized by topic.
Poster boards and pushpins will be supplied, to attach posters to the
boards for display.
Presenters are encouraged to prepare and bring 1-page double-sided handouts
to accompany their posters.
Topics for this call for poster include, but are not limited to:
Designing for new food systems, products, and experiences both locally and
globally
