Roots | Routes in Design Cumulus Athens 2026 conference calling for papers!

The theme explores the interdependency between our past and our future as a fundamental value for devising pathways in Design. The working hypothesis of this conference is that we cannot forge paths toward the future unless we know where we come from; nor can we truly know our past unless we understand where we aspire to go.

The conference will be held in Athens, Greece, at the premises of the University of West Attica, between May 5–9, 2026.

Key concepts: (Re)discovering our roots in order to explore new routes; seeking identity in the notion of origins to shape a sustainable outlook for future design pathways; discovering who we are before telling others how to be.
