I think it is good lecture for a designer. He is director of The Helen Hamlyn Centre which is located at Stevens building.

About Us

The Helen Hamlyn Centre for Design at the Royal College of Art undertakes design research and projects with industry that will contribute to improving people's lives. 

Our approach is inclusive and interdisciplinary. Our work is organised in three research labs:

• Age & Ability: design for a more inclusive society irrespective of age and ability
• Health & Patient Safety: creating safer and better health services
• Work & City: research into changing patterns of work and urban life

We are the largest and longest-running centre for design research at the Royal College of Art, London, which is one of the world's leading postgraduate art and design schools.

The Helen Hamlyn Centre for Design has its origins in the DesignAge action research programme, which was founded in 1991. It became a fully-fledged research centre in 1999, widening its focus from design for ageing population to design to improve people's lives across a range of social needs.

We collaborate with business, academic, government and voluntary sector partners. We engage with four design communities: students, new graduates,professional designers and academics. We develop innovative and empathic research methods – and we exchange knowledge via education, events, publications and industrial collaboration.

The Helen Hamlyn Centre is endowed by the Helen Hamlyn Trust, a charity dedicated to supporting innovative projects that will effect lasting change and improve quality of life. The centre's Director is Jeremy Myerson, who holds theHelen Hamlyn Chair of Design.
