Designing the News: The Changing World of Editorial Design. Bringing together current practitioners and researchers to examine key issues affecting the dissemination and reception of factual information today and, crucially, in the future.

Join us on Friday, 13th November in EQ-002, East Quad for an afternoon of discussion and debate.

In the current climate of disinformation and stark polarisation, the apparently transparent but deeply rhetorical field of creative direction for news and media is an often over-looked tool in the challenge for media literacy. Bringing together experts from related fields and providing a forum to interrogate the developing role of creative direction for news and media, both at home and internationally, event addresses the often overlooked visual dimension of media literacy, news and current affairs.

We bring together a number of key practitioners to stimulate debate on this area. These include a number of internationally acclaimed, and arguably most prominent figures in European newspaper and magazine design of the last 30 years: Mark Porter (Irish Independent, Guardian) and Francesco Franchi (Domus, La Repubblica), with a number of local practitioners to be announced.

Those with an interest in editorial design, media literacy and the future of graphic design in Ireland and Europe are warmly welcomed.
Recommended for those 18+.

Supported by Irish Design Week, TU Dublin’s Inspire programme and TU Dublin School of Media.

Hidden Scientists/Hidden Creatives 2026

📍 Main Atrium, East Quad, TU Dublin Grangegorman Campus
📅 Monday, 27th April – Friday, 1st May 2026
🕑 Opening Event: Wednesday, 29th April at 2pm

Now in its third year, Hidden Scientists / Hidden Creatives is a powerful poster exhibition shining a light on the overlooked contributions of women in STEM and Design. Created by second year Visual Communication students at Dublin. This project challenges prevailing narratives about innovation and knowledge by addressing the underrepresentation and historical marginalisation of women in these fields. The exhibition highlights the essential yet frequently unseen roles women have played in advancing research, discovery, and design.

This project is an ongoing collaboration between the TU Dublin School of Art and Design, the School of Biological, Health and Sports Sciences, the Sustainability and Research Hub, and the Research, Ethics, and Integrity Office. It is supported by the Office of Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion and the Faculty of Sciences and Health.

Each year, upon completion of the exhibition, posters are permanently housed in the Green Way Hub, growing the collection.
