SUMMARY:From Algae to Artifact: A Hands-On Biomaterial Workshop
DESCRIPTION:*** EVENT SOLD OUT***\nIf you’ve ever been curious about biomaterials or how to make your own sustainable objects\, this workshop is for you.\nTogether\, we’ll dive into the exciting world of algae-based bioplastics — materials made simply from agar\, glycerin\, and water — and explore how they can be transformed into beautiful\, functional pieces that go far beyond packaging and compost bags.\nWe’ll kick off with an info and demo session introducing you to the making process\, key characteristics\, and surprising design possibilities of these materials. You’ll get a behind-the-scenes look at our own experiments and creative process\, plus a brief introduction to the materials science behind algae-based bioplastics and foams. While we won’t be making the material from scratch (due to long drying times)\, you’ll receive the recipe to try at home.\nThen\, during a hands-on DIY session\, you’ll craft your own unique home decor — a hanging or standing organizer — using our library of algae-based materials. Along the way\, you’ll learn essential techniques like joinery\, creating custom patterning on biofoams\, and incorporating other biomaterials (feel free to bring wood\, fabrics\, threads\, or anything else you’d like to experiment with!)\nNo prior experience needed — just curiosity and a love for design! You’ll leave with a unique piece that reflects both creativity and environmental responsibility. \nSCHEDULE [2 hrs]\n10 mins: Welcome + Introductions\n25 mins: Deep dive into algae-bioplastics development\n15 mins: Demo + Intro to our biomaterial library\n60 mins: DIY your home decor + Open experimentation\n10 mins: Show and tell \nFor this workshop the cost per person is $30 which covers the cost of materials. The bioplastics and materials are hand poured\, specially for this workshop! \nWe will have signs out at the entrances of Jacobs Institute\, in order to guide attendees to the correct location within the building. \nParking is located at the Lower Hearst and Upper Hearst garages. There is also paid and free 2 hour street parking available nearby. \nORGANIZER BIOS:\nChia-Jung:\nIndustrial Designer | HCI Researcher

SUMMARY:Design for wellbeing: Building the positive corner of the internet at Pinterest
DESCRIPTION:*** EVENT SOLD OUT***\nAs Pinterest celebrates 15 years\, teens and Gen Z are our fastest growing demographics. Young people tell us it feels like a “safe corner of the internet” or that it’s like “being in my own little world.” \nBut why? What’s going into that feeling of calm and sense of open exploration that happens while browsing and saving to Pinterest? Believe it or not\, a lot. \nAt Pinterest\, we prioritize “designing the good in” rather than simply “keeping the bad out.” And in an ongoing mental health crisis marked with fragmented attention spans\, doomscrolling\, and comparison\, Pinterest has been scaffolding guardrails to build a future friendly platform that actually improves wellbeing rather than depletes it. \nJoin us for an interactive session to learn about the science of inspiration and its impact on wellbeing and moreover\, what you can do to “design the good in” to your own practice. \nSPEAKERS: \nMINNIE BREDOUW is a Principal & Creative Director at Pinterest leads many of the wellbeing initiatives across Pinterest ranging from teen experience\, user education\, the future of social\, and beyond. She also founded Big Wonder\, an edtech product focused on helping teens find purpose amidst the mental health crisis. Her work has been featured in TIME Magazine\, Wall Street Journal\, SXSW\, and Bloomberg\, to name a few. In her spare time\, she teaches Design for Social Impact and Design for Inclusion at the graduate level. \nLARKIN BROWN is the Senior Director of Product Research at Pinterest\, where she helps shape the vision for creating a more inclusive and positive experience for millions of Pinners worldwide. As a founding member of Pinterest’s inclusive product team\, Larkin helped spearhead the development of industry-first features like skin tone ranges\, hair pattern and body type search\, and digital wellbeing measurement—helping users see themselves represented and supporting their mental health as they discover ideas online. Her work and perspective have been featured in the Wall Street Journal\, Business Insider\, Wired\, Forbes\, Glamour\, Vogue\, and on the TODAY Show. Outside of Pinterest\, Larkin channels her love for personal style as a freelance stylist—and chases around her young children.

SUMMARY:Evolutionary Design: A Conversation with Eugene Tssui
DESCRIPTION:Join UC Berkeley Master of Design (MDes) faculty member Pierluigi Dalla Rosa and visionary architect Dr. Eugene Tssui for a conversation on how designers (and humanity at large) can chart new paths forward through evolutionary thinking. \nDr. Tssui harnesses the ingenuity of the natural world in his multidisciplinary practice that spans architecture\, fashion design\, hand-painted renderings\, and music. His work offers bold alternatives to technological sameness\, creative specialization\, and cultural homogenization.  \nPierluigi Dalla Rosa brings a complementary perspective shaped by his work designing novel interfaces and his teaching at Berkeley MDes\, where he encourages students to treat technology not as a given\, but as a material to question\, shape\, and reimagine. \nTogether\, Dalla Rosa and Tssui will examine how the rapid proliferation of emerging technologies is influencing creative practice and planetary well-being\, and what it might look like to resist that tide. \nThe evening will feature an exclusive premiere of footage from Tssui’s forthcoming documentary\, followed by a reception with refreshments and an interactive exhibition of student work from the Berkeley MDes program. \nABOUT THE SPEAKERS \nPierluigi Dalla Rosa is an artist\, designer\, leader\, inventor\, and educator with a passion for the medium of computation. With extensive experience in both in-house and consulting roles\, he has helped to build and ship forward-looking products for large companies and startups\, such as Apple\, NIO\, Panasonic\, and Humane. His commitment to crafting experiences and artifacts that elevate human intellect and unleash creative potential is the cornerstone of his professional ethos. He actively explores the space at the intersection of sustainability and computing and other areas of interest include collective and spatial computing outside of traditional devices. Pierluigi is faculty at the Berkeley Master of Design (MDes) program\, where he inspires students to envision new narratives about a future with sustainable practices in technology. He holds a master’s degree in Cinema and Media Engineering from Politecnico di Torino and he is an alumnus of the interaction design program at the Copenhagen Institute of Interaction Design.\n\nDr. Eugene Tssui is an architect\, educator\, athlete\, and visionary with a commitment to ecological design principles since 1990. With experience working alongside revolutionary architects Bruce Goff and Dr. Frei Otto in the 1980s\, he has designed sustainable buildings and planned cities for indigenous communities in Shenzhen\, China from 1999-2015. His dedication to creating structures that harmonize with nature earned him the title “Guardian Angel of the Planet” in 2013\, alongside Jane Goodall and Jean Michel Cousteau. He actively explores the intersection of architecture and environmentalism\, with his work to be featured at the New York Museum of Modern Art in 2023-2024. Eugene has taught at UC Berkeley\, Ohio University\, and universities throughout China\, inspiring students to embrace ecological approaches to architecture. He holds an Interdisciplinary Doctorate from UC Berkeley (1990) and is an alumnus of Columbia University\, having been part of E. Paul Torrance’s creativity development program in the 1960s. \nABOUT BERKELEY MDES \nThe UC Berkeley Master of Design (MDes) is a professional graduate program in design for emerging technologies. Jointly offered by UC Berkeley’s College of Engineering and College of Environmental Design\, the MDes emphasizes a critical approach to design and social practice to address the new realities of emerging technologies in the 21st century. \nSCHEDULE \n5:30 – 6:30PM:  Evolutionary Design: A Conversation with Eugene Tssui  \n6:30 – 8:00PM:  Refreshments\, mingling and MDes student work exhibits. Optional inside look at the Berkeley MDes facilities\, including the Jacobs Institute of Design Innovation Makerspaces.

SUMMARY:Balancing Act: Stability Meets Innovation in Design
DESCRIPTION:This event explores how SoFi balances stability and security with bold innovation across our digital products and services. The centerpiece of the event is a keynote panel focused on the tension between stability and transformation in design: when to push boundaries\, when to make incremental change\, and how to do both without compromising member trust. We will feature designers sharing first-hand stories of lessons learned from three recent product launches: our app Home screen redesign\, our loan payments platform\, and our internal customer support tool. \nBefore the keynote\, attendees can meet the SoFi Design and Research team and participate in activities designed to help them transform their personal careers and financial wellbeing: portfolio reviews\, live user research\, and free financial planning sessions**. \n\nAbout SoFi \nOur number one goal is helping our members get their money right. SoFi’s mission is to help people reach financial independence to realize their ambitions. \nFinancial independence doesn’t just mean being rich—it means getting to a point where your money works for the life you want to live. Everything we do is geared toward helping our members get their money right. We’re constantly innovating and building ways to give our members what they need to make that happen. \nSchedule\n\nDoors: 5:30pm\nNetworking & Activity Stations: 5:30 – 6:30pm\nKeynote: 6:30 – 7:30pm\nEvent ends: 8pm\n\nKeynote Case Studies \n\nSoFi App Homepage: After years of incremental additions\, the home page of our app was no longer serving its core job to be done: providing personalized financial insights that help members get their money right. Learn how the team approached incrementally redesigning the most visited page of the SoFi app.\nReimagining the Borrower Experience: Trust is built when we listen and adapt. Learn how the team transformed member feedback into a reimagined servicing experience for SoFi’s student loan borrowers. Together\, we’ll explore the ways that small foundational steps can pave the way to product innovation in the lending space.\nSoFi Internal Tools: When members call our customer service department\, our support agents need to know everything about the member to answer questions quickly and accurately. Learn how the team tackled a complete redesign of our internal support tools to transform a fundamental area of our business.\n\nActivity Stations\n\nPortfolio Review: Get feedback from a SoFi recruiter or designer on your work.*\nLive User Research: Participate in live research with the SoFi research team.\nFinancial Planning: Talk finances with a SoFi financial planner and sign up for a free\, personalized consultation.**\n\n* Please bring a computer to share your work if you would like a portfolio review \n**Financial consultations will take place after the event
