Zhipeng Duan
Duan Zhipeng is a PhD candidate in the Institute of Design at the Oslo School of Architecture and Design (AHO) in Norway. Duan’s research focuses on the relationship between service design and culture. His PhD study investigates how an emerging conception of cultural plurality can be used in order both to offer a more inclusive and respectful narrative of the complexity of culture and to reimagine the boundaries of service design in plurality. Duan’s practice is particularly entangled with the transformation of healthcare in both Norway and China, to enhance the capability of service design confronting the complexity of culture in the system of healthcare.
