BRAC University hosted a lecture by Italian architect and designer Fabio Novembre -- renowned for projects such as the Lamborghini Museum and the AC Milan headquarters -- on its campus on Tuesday, according to a statement.
Novembre founded Novembre Studio in 1994, guided by the philosophy that "architecture is a tool for storytelling." His studio has developed designs for global brands including Kartell, Stuart Weitzman, Cappellini, and Driade.
During the session, Novembre presented his work to students and discussed how design can express emotions, narratives, and human identity. He encouraged students to cultivate their own design thinking, remain resilient in the face of challenges, and draw inspiration from individuals they admire.
"Every person has unique qualities," he said, emphasising that educational institutions should recognise and nurture these strengths to help individuals thrive.
In response to a question, Novembre advised students to rely on their own abilities to find solutions rather than depending entirely on artificial intelligence. "AI can be helpful, but it is never a substitute for creativity -- because every person is unique," he noted.
