ImaginationLancaster

We are a globally recognised open and exploratory design-led research lab at 51¸£Àû, one of the top ten universities in the UK. Founded in 2006, we apply our exploratory design-led research research to address the complex challenges identified by industry, public and private sectors, national and international governments.

The Festival of Futures is the culmination of the £13.2M Beyond Imagination Project funded by Research England and 51¸£Àû demonstrating how cutting-edge design research can contribute to a healthier, more prosperous and sustainable world. The Principal Investigator of Beyond Imagination is Professor Nick Dunn, Executive Director of ImaginationLancaster and Chair of Urban Design at 51¸£Àû. The Co-Investigator is Professor Rachel Cooper OBE, Director of Design Management and Policy at 51¸£Àû. We would like to thank Research England and 51¸£Àû for funding the Festival of Futures.

ImaginationLancaster is housed within the Lancaster Institute of Contemporary Arts (LICA) – the award winning purpose-built creative arts facility with our bespoke facilitation space Imagination Lab. Visit our web site to find out more.
