The Roving Designers are a collective and micro studio created to foster co-design and co-creation in a sustainable, inclusive and decolonial manner. Its aim is to bring design work out of the confines of buildings and into parks, plazas, sidewalks, and anywhere else in nature or public space.
This studio/collective is a space that encourages decolonial design practices that care with and respond to local environments, communities, & contexts. We focus on practicing and sharing small & slow acts of design making that can lead to discussions and insights into larger systemic issues.
The Roving Designers first workbook was published in February 2021. To download visit https://rovingdesigners.carrd.co/#workbooks
