Soft Systems is a special exhibition presented during LA Design Weekend, bringing together pioneering studios and emerging designers from Sci-Arc, ArtCenter, and CalArts. The show highlights experimental practices that push the boundaries of technology, design, and performance—featuring AI-driven tools, interactive installations, and poetic reimaginings of space and graphics.

Celebrating the next generation of frontier designers, Soft Systems creates an immersive environment with live performances, music, and communal experiences, inviting audiences to reimagine the future of design.
