The Royal College of Art, the only wholly postgraduate art and design college in the world, has a rich history of innovation: many products now in everyday use started as RCA graduate projects and many RCA graduates have emerged as leading innovators in their field. InnovationRCA is a network set up by the Royal College of Art to bring RCA graduates together with business in order to create innovation opportunities. InnovationRCA aims to help business organisations of all kinds to innovate by introducing new knowledge, new products and new practices from the multi-disciplinary community of designers, artists and researchers at the Royal College of Art - Designs of the Time
Dott 07 (Designs of the time 2007), a year of community projects, events and exhibitions based in North East England, explored what life in a sustainable region could be like - and how design could help us get there. A national initiative of the Design Council and the regional development agency One NorthEast, Dott 07 is the first in a 10-year programme of biennial events developed by the Design Council that will take place across the UK. The projects were small but important real-life examples of sustainable living, which will evolve and multiply in the years ahead.
