Greece 2022
11 creative studios, 11 aspects of our lives, 10 years later

What kind of country do we want Greece to be in ten years from now? Will the characteristics of the Greek identity be affected by the monetary crisis? How will we perceive Greece in 2022 and how will we be perceived by our friends, allies, observers and competitors abroad? How we can influence the way others see us? Within the narrative context "Greece 2022" the design studios will create their own version of our future. During Design Walk 2012, nothing will be left undisclosed. The designers will confront the present, suggesting a different future, ambitious, intelligent, optimistic, extroverted and humorous. "We need this now, more than ever. The issue is purely existential. We cannot create a different future without having imagined it first".
