Respect for nature as design inspiration

For several years, society, brands, and design have sought to reconnect with nature, a fundamental trend that has accelerated since the pandemic.

A reconnection that manifests itself in a perpetual quest for sustainability with innovative eco-design approaches; but also by graphic and aesthetic codes that highlight the deep nature of brands through their history, their territory, or their know-how.

This session will be on the PLD stage and will be in French.
