Our Theme

For EuroIA 2017 we chose the theme of “Adaptation and designing for change”.

People adapt to their physical environments all the time, and those physical spaces themselves are constantly being adapted to suit peoples' changing needs.

The same is true for how we interact with information spaces.

At EuroIA 2017, we want to explore this idea of information architecture and adaptation. Both the adaptation of information spaces to peoples' continuously transforming needs, and also the changes we can influence and encourage through our designs.

Let’s not forget our need as professionals to adapt to new information technologies, as well. Our playing field is constantly in flux.

We would love to see submissions related to topics like

  • the relationship between physical architecture and information architecture
  • designing for mixed or augmented realities, and the information they hold
  • the development of resilience and antifragility in what we make
  • responsibility and ethics, and our changing role as designers and architects
  • while we think about change and adaptation, how might we consider sustainability in design?
  • the extension of this topic into organisational change by design, and where we fit in.

We encourage IA & UX practitioners and people from other fields of practice to submit, in order to give us perspective on broader meanings for adaptation and designing for change.

We hope to see you there!
