Inspiring the Next Generation of Creators at NUST
To enkindle true inspiration and show the real-world impact of creativity, the Art & Design Department of Aitchison College, Prep School, organised a study tour for sixty-eight students to the School of Art, Design & Architecture (SADA) at NUST on September 19th, 2025.
The visit was a deep dive into the futuristic design. Students participated in an engaging lecture and hands-on workshops that brought concepts like design thinking, innovation, and sustainability to life. They witnessed firsthand how creative problem-solving can address real-world challenges and explored the vital role of applied arts in our daily lives. A major highlight of the tour was discovering the growing influence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) as a powerful tool in the designer's toolkit.
