TRUST. Semester projects by design students at the University of Applied Sciences Munich

How do we trust what we no longer understand?
Trust feels subjective or personal but works as a socio-technical infrastructure: it shapes how we relate to institutions, devices, systems, procedures, and each other. As technologies get more complex and constantly change and evolve, trust is repeatedly displaced, rebuilt, refused, or quietly lost.
TRUST presents 14 student works showcasing a wide spectrum of topics where trust is essential, and should contribute to the foundations of desirable futures: from AI in medicine to QR-code interfaces, gender bias in healthcare, alcoholism in society, and early-childhood relationships. Visitors look, question, and discuss across analog and digital formats.
