Diego Alatorre
Designer, Hamburg

An academic venture to explore design as a means of learning how to overcome complexity, ambiguity, and uncertainty thought creative interactions. Based on a playful framework, participants of different ages and backgrounds experience how perfection does not exist, but the evidence-based design is always perfectible.

Since 2014, he has been exploring the links between Design and Education, developing projects with a fun, didactic, and situated approach. Through his work, he probes closer into the interpersonal dynamics that surround the products he co-designs. Diego has a particular interest in how to elicit intrinsic motivation to create significant interactions among projects’ participants. This way, he pursuits to emancipate the human spirit through the creative process.
