The Knoll Lecture in Design: Nifemi Marcus-Bello
Nifemi Marcus-Bello’s Knoll Lecture in Design, Material Affirmations, will explore material affirmations as acts of care, agency, and transformation; revealing how materials shape meaning, memory, and identity. Through an iterative, inquiry-based design practice, it examines making as dialogue, embracing tactility, imperfection, and embodied knowledge to cultivate more attentive, ethical, and materially engaged ways of creating.
The Knoll Lecture in Design was established in 2004 by Knoll, the residential furnishings company founded by Cranbrook Academy of Art graduate Florence Schust and her husband, Hans Knoll. Each year, the endowed Knoll Lecture Fund brings the world’s most distinguished and innovative designers and thinkers to the Cranbrook campus to speak about their practice and to work with tomorrow’s design leaders studying at the Academy. Past speakers have included Steven Haulenbeek, Aldo Bakker, Martino Gamper, Bertjan Pot, Lindsey Adelman, Stefano Caggiano, and many others.
