The 2025 Conscious Cities Festival marks the launch of a new CCD Event Series: The Observatory!
The Observatory showcases built projects that exemplify Conscious Design Principles in order to share knowledge, experience, and inspiration. In this first event of the series we will be joined by three incredible speakers who will share their experiences of leveraging co-design in their projects, offering real-world examples of reconnecting with place through agency and collaboration.
