At the Design Innovation Research Centre we’ve been designing spaces to host challenging legal negotiations. There’s been a NSW reform that introduced mandatory pre-court case conferences for some type of offences. These are negotiations between defendants, their lawyers and prosecution. These are complex conversations that involve difficult decisions, people negotiating in person and through video link and situations where people can’t see or hear each other. We've been exploring the way that design can support people in these challenging situations.
