NYCxDESIGN KEYNOTE: Technology x Design, Partnered with Magic Leap

2024 marks the inauguration of the NYCxDESIGN Keynote series. Through this program, a daily keynote is presented throughout the festival week, inviting designers and brands of all disciplines from around the world to share inspiring stories and vision. We’re proud to partner with luminary, design focused organizations to bring these conversations to life.

NYCxDESIGN Keynote: Technology x Design - Spatial Design Superpowers
We stand on the cusp of a revolutionary paradigm shift. With Augmented Reality (AR), the traditional confines of crafting 3D objects on 2D screens are dissolving, giving way to a new era of designing at scale in true three-dimensional space. In this Keynote, we’ll explore how AR is enabling spatial designers with extraordinary new superpowers that could change everything. 

As demonstrated by DEVCO’s new Helix Life Sciences Campus in New Brunswick, New Jersey, where HUSH integrated Magic Leap into their design process—enabling enhanced collaboration, real-time prototyping, and immersive large-scale presentations. We’ll share insights and opportunities gleaned from this pilot that reveal transformative new approaches to teamwork and client engagement. 

Whether you're an experienced professional or new to the field, this event aims to inform and inspire—exploring the transformative potential for architecture, interior design, and everything in between. Join us to learn about the superpowers that AR is unlocking for designers and discover how you can harness these abilities to elevate your own design practice.

Presenters: Joel Krieger (VP Product Design, Magic Leap); David Schwarz (Founding Partner, HUSH)
