It also hopes to support and inspire modern creators, with regular discussions, master classes, courses, and presentations.<br> <br> The centre has already announced partnerships with Moscow’s Stroganov Academy, the Higher School of Economics and the British Higher School of Design.</p> <p>“In a world where people speak different languages, where there are opposing beliefs and worldviews, design remains as a universal form of communication,” Elena Titova, director of the All-Russian Decorative Art Museum, said at the centre’s official launch. “Design in each country is a visualisation of national culture. It is an opportunity for expression: to convey the history, values, dreams and aspirations of an entire people through line, colour and form.”<br> <br> The D3 Centre’s first exhibition, focusing on the work Soviet design agencies in 1960s — 1980s, will run until 14 January.
