Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale.
Montreal (Canada), 28 June 2022 — World #design Organization (WDO)® announced today that internationally renowned designer and gerontologist Dr. #patriciamoore has been named as the recipient of the #2022worlddesignmedal for her significant contributions to the advancement of the industrial #design profession.
As a pioneering figure in #design, Dr. #patriciamoore is a leading authority on consumer lifespan behaviours and requirements. For a period of three years from 1979 to 1982, Moore travelled throughout the United States and Canada disguised as women of more than 80 years of age. This experience of responding to #people, products, and environments as an elder enabled an empathetic approach to #design that informed much of her future work, from NASA to Whirlpool.
"Patricia represents an inspiration to many, and her decades-long career stands a testament to her commitment to accessible and inclusive #design," stated WDO President #davidkusuma. "WDO is honoured to take this opportunity to recognize her leadership, creativity and intellect that to this day, continues to have a profound impact on the industrial #design landscape and the designers of tomorrow."
Following a public call for nominations, Moore was selected from among a list of nominees representing 11 countries around the world by the World #design Medal Selection Committee. The committee, composed of members of the WDO and Board of Directors and Senators, acknowledged Moore's many years of dedicated service and her impact on the #design community as a whole.
"To live life with the blessing of a creative career is a joy that defies description, but to have the support of the family that is the WDO is the greatest gift of all," stated #patriciamoore. "I have no doubt that as we emerge from a crippling global pandemic, the WDO will provide for systematic dignity, equity and recovery with the leadership that can only be achieved by #design."
The official World #design Medal presentation will take place on 29 June 2022 on the occasion of #worldindustrialdesignday, during WDO's 24-hour virtual event let's talk: leadership. Moore will join the programme to share her insight on the topic of #design leadership as part of a 30-minute session moderated by WDO
