History
MEDS was founded in 2010 by students from different countries and different departments of design. It was created with aim to join all design departments together. Architecture, interior architecture, industrial design, graphic design and all other departments of design. It is a fact that design is all around us and everything man-made was designed, MEDS focuses everything on design. Design makes ideas tangible, it takes abstract thoughts and inspirations and makes something concrete. The idea of MEDS is to share knowledge about design, to learn the design process, from small objects to large projects, to share experience, to improve creativity, abilities and communication between students from many design disciplines. Different people, different cultures, different languages and different design departments will be joined in one place, to new and fresh ideas. MEDS is organised each year in different country. With an aim to spread this idea over the Europe. Organization team consist of students which want to represent their contry as an MEDS team. They send proposal to the founder of the organization. When proposal is approved, they can start with organization. Team decides about subject, place of the workshop, program, conference, etc...
