Overview
On June 19th, 2024, from 14:00 to 15:00 CEST, we will host the Atlantic & Arctic Weekly Hour featuring the Bauhaus of the Seas (BoS) New European Bauhaus (NEB) Lighthouse project with Nuno Jardim Nunes. Nuno will cover the main concept and vision of the project and then walk through the BoS regenerative development in coastal areas, blending aesthetics, inclusion, and sustainability. Central to this vision is the concept of “drops,” which are localized, impactful initiatives designed to create “ripples” of positive change throughout communities. I will then show examples of “drops” deployed across the seven pilot cities as part of the project.

Nuno Jardim Nunes
Full professor at Técnico – University of Lisbon and the President and founder of the Interactive Technologies Institute (ITI)
Nuno is a Full professor at Técnico – University of Lisbon and the President and founder of the Interactive Technologies Institute (ITI), the leading HCI and design research institute in Portugal. Nuno is the co-Director of the Carnegie Mellon International partnership and adjunct faculty at the Human-Computer Interaction Institute at Carnegie Mellon University. Nuno is a strong advocate of the role of human-centric design in participatory culture and sustainability. His research influenced how digital technologies (including sensors, ML/AI, interactive storytelling, and mixed reality) can engage and inspire digital citizens to act sustainably and connect to nature and the broader ecosystems. Recently Nuno was nominated by the Portuguese Government to coordinate the working group to propose a vision for Portugal’s participation in the New European Bauhaus. His contribution led to the Bauhaus of the Seas manifesto he is currently pursuing as a thematic NEB proposal. Nuno organized several critical conferences of the ACM SIGCHI and published more than 160 peer-reviewed papers in international journals and conferences in the areas of HCI, software, energy, sustainability, design, and service science. He was PI and co-PI of several research projects totaling more than 25M€ from European to national and industry-funded.
