MATTER and SHAPE(talks) support by Monocle
During its collaboration with Monocle, MATTER and SHAPE hosted a series of talks unfolding over two days, bringing together designers, architects, thinkers and cultural voices around one shared intention: to explore how design shapes the way we live. More than a program, these conversations became a space: open, precise and deeply human where ideas could circulate freely and resonate beyond the moment itself. Today, this dialogue continues in another form. The six talks are now progressively released on Monocle’s Design Radio, with one episode shared each week since mid-March 2026, allowing each exchange to be revisited, extended and reinterpreted over time. A way to move beyond the immediacy of the salon, and to carry these conversations further, durably where design continues to exist as a living dialogue.— discover the talks
