Created from data by researchers at the Kyoto Institute of Technology, this interactive article uses this simulation data, along with additional research by other institutions, to paint a stark and immersive case for the importance of social distancing and bring the relatively intangible and invisible factors of distance and virus carrying particles into clear view.
Social and Community-Oriented Design - Digital
Social design applies a design methodology and intervention to tighten the social fabric that holds us together. Addressing issues of social inequality, such as poverty or social isolation, social design is the pathway to a more just and sustainable society. Community-oriented design is a human-centered and participatory design practice that emphasises the betterment of local communities through the improvement of public facilities, equipment, identity and experience.
The digital category celebrates design outcomes across digital platforms and includes motion design, front end and interaction design, user experience design and digital product design.
