Design Drama: Methodology

Design Drama is a set of methods for the improvement of creativity, integral development and well-being of people, in individual, professional and educational contexts. It is based on the synergic combination of the methodological tools of Design and Communication, together with dramatisation and storytelling techniques, theatrical games, playful didactic resources and artistic expression. It is the result of almost 20 years of the academic, professional and artistic experience of its creator, Erik Ciravegna.

Design Drama: Purpose

Design Drama supports creative processes, encourages the generation of new ideas and favours the improvement of soft skills; at the same time, it helps people to achieve their “creative well-being”, i.e. a holistic state of well-being through the resources of creativity. To this end, individual or group activities are organised, in face-to-face or online mode, in the form of lectures, dissemination talks and workshops; these activities are flexible and can be adapted to the objectives and needs of the participants, from the free creative expression for personal growth to the development of consultancy projects for specific brands, products or services.

Design Drama: Audience

Design Drama is aimed at individuals, groups and communities with an interest in improving people’s state of mind, their relationships with others, their ability to produce ideas and problem-solving. It also offers consultancy and training services for professionals and organisations, as well as activities for students and teachers of schools and universities.
