First WA screening of Design & Thinking
“Design thinking is a term that arose in order to distinguish between what others think of as design, which is usually just the surface, to the thinking behind. Thinking is something you do first, and then you make.” Paul Pangaro, CTO, CyberneticLifestyles.com, in Design & Thinking.
The first screening of Design & Thinking in WA will be at Luna Cinemas on Sx in Fremantle, and has been brought to Perth by AGDA (Australian Graphics Design Association), as well as Spacecubed and the Design Institute of Western Australia. Spacecubed members can register to attend under the member ticket section.
The night starts at 6 pm at Luna with champagne and a chance to network, before moving in to the cinema to view the film at 6.30.

The documentary Design & Thinking grabs businessman, designers, social change makers and unlikely individuals to portrait all they have in common when facing this ambiguous 21st century.
The film is inspired by design thinking and aims to bring forward the process and ambiguity of how designers and creative people think and do things. Change-making organisations like Code for America are put next to local bike shops and Coca-Cola to provide real world inspirations of Design Thinking. The documentary also shows Design Thinking thought leaders share their beliefs as skeptics progress the movie in a thought-provoking fashion. All the leaders believe asking the right questions is more important than providing form answers.
