Introduction:
The fib Symposium on conceptual design is arranged bi-yearly. First time in Madrid 2019, then Switzerland in 2021, both very successful, and next one is in 2023 in Oslo, in collaboration with the Norwegian Concrete Association. Challenges ahead are more serious than before. We can mention a few: climate, sustainability, energy, infrastructure, circular economy, safe living, and safe cities. Future concept designers need to be more clever than before. The ambition of the 2023 Symposium is to help young designers to develop skills of conceptual design, to be more clever than the present conceptual designers. Contrary to what many believes, conceptual design abilities may be developed.
