In this fourth episode, speakers explore the intersection of architecture and design with societal issues touching upon the impact of scarcity, the importance of historical continuity, and the role of beauty in design. Contrasting the importance of hierarchy with collective work, the speakers also debated the role of architects in creating sustainable and emotionally bonded spaces.

MATTER and SHAPE is a design salon that takes place in the Jardin de Tuileries on the occasion of Paris Fashion Week. The salon invites exhibitors, great and small, to present exceptional projects and products in an elevated setting, celebrating the culture of global design today. The Jil Sander Design Talks seek to catalyse intersectional conversations on and around design, engaging with the topic both conceptually and philosophically as well as exploring this from the scale of the individual object to that of the pavilion.
