Design.nl got the umbrellas out in Eindhoven this week, travelling all around town to bring you the best from this year's Dutch Design Week (DDW). Part one of our DDW coverage sees the Dutch pavilion 'Happy Street' at the Shanghai World Expo awarded the overall winner in the Dutch Design Awards and the Concert Hall in Eindhoven gets a high-tech makeover courtesy of Van Eijk & Van der Lubbe and Philips.
