Mission

BeyonDesign Centre serves as a strategic nexus between the design education ecosystem and industry, championing the transformative role of design in addressing real-world challenges.

About the Centre

BeyonDesign Centre forges purposeful collaborations between the School of Design and industry, positioning design as a catalyst for innovation and systems-level transformation. Whether initiated by external partners or through our own strategic outreach, these engagements investigate how design can critically address complex societal and business challenges.
 

Outcomes may take the form of student-led academic projects or faculty-driven consultancy work, all grounded in rigorous research and innovation. Beyond projects, we curate targeted events—such as industry dialogues, workshops, and knowledge exchanges—that are integral to fostering long-term partnerships and embedding design deeper into organisational strategy.
