A studio for creative engagements with knowledge.
We are fundamentally curious about the shapes knowledge takes and what forms of learning are most fitting for engaging deeper understandings.
We see knowledge design as a creative practice that takes knowledge itself as the medium.
WHAT IS KNOWLEDGE DESIGN?
Knowledge design is an intentional process of shaping how knowledge is discovered, shared, embodied, and experienced—across formats, disciplines, and communities.
Knowledge design grows from our practice and scholarship in curriculum design. Curriculum design is still the core of our work, and yet the term continually collapses back onto schools and commonly understood ideas about formal curricular documents: syllabi, textbooks, worksheets, class projects and assignments. Knowledge design is interested in those opportunities for designing learning experiences wherever knowledge is to be found, produced, and shared: in kitchens and gardens, in community centers and sacred spaces, in city sidewalks and subway stations, along the water and near a work of art.
