A collection of design for and between different generations, and for all ages to come.

‘We all want to grow old but no one wants to be old’. – In the coming years, the group of older people in our society will grow significantly due to the double ageing population. How will changing demographics affect how we live together?

Each generation in society faces different challenges; for instance, a lot of responsibilities come with turning 18 and more and more elderly people are living in loneliness. This is why it is important to start thinking about later today. What will your old age look like? Do you need to think about retirement now, or will you see it when you get there? And what values do we pass on to the next generation?

Several social designers will take you along in their exploration through installations, research and critical designs. How do you feel about later?
