Visuelles Branding, Strategie & Kultur. Initiatoren der BERLIN DESIGN WEEK. WOFÜR STEHT STATE OF DESIGN?

rd. Animiert von einem Programm aus Vorträgen, Talks und Debatten schafft state of DESIGN eine Plattform, um Aspekte des Designs der Zukunft zu debattieren und aufzuzeigen. In dieser neuen Umgebung sind etablierte Designer, Newcomer, Hidden Champions und führende Designschulen und -institutionen eingeladen, ihre aktuellsten Arbeiten und Projekte zu präsentieren und untereinander und mit Fachbesuchern aus der Designindustrie und designaffinen Verbrauchern in einen intensiven Dialog einzutauchen. Wir sind überzeugt, daß es dieses Experimentierfeld braucht, um die wirklichen Innovationen im Designfeld aufzuspüren. WHAT STATE OF DESIGN ESSENTIALLY IS
In its search for new ways to present design, state of DESIGN freely mixes existing formats, such as that of a fair, showroom, museum, gallery, conference, get together, party and shop. Doing away with the limitations of a fair stand, for instance, all works will be presented as a carefully curated whole. And animated by a program of daily talks, the editions will debate aspects of what the next generation design might be. And while the latter is a novelty, big player, newcomer, hidden champions and leading design schools are invited to present their latest work and projects and to join an intensive dialog—speaking on terms with the design industry and design-loving consumers. We are convinced that this "Experimentierfeld" is needed to to explore the real innovations in the design industry.
