Newsletter #206
This week on Design.nl we revisit last week's What Design Can Do conference and see what design can do for sustainable fashion with Suzanne Lee and Catarina Midby, then discover what impact design can have on public spaces courtesy of Paula Schrer and Raumlabor. We speak with Els Woldhek on her residency in Ahmedabad, India and her latest exhibition at Sotheby's in London. Also this week we travel to Germany where the house Oranienbaum recently re-opened to showcase an abundance of Dutch design in an exhibition curated by Nicole Uniquole.
What Design Can Do for public spaces
Two very different people with two very different approaches to public space design: Paula Scher and Axel Timm both spoke about the power of design for public spaces at the What Design Can Do conference.
Dutch design from a crafts perspective
Last April Dutch Design - Huis van Oranje, or Excellent craft at the Court, opened at Oranienbaum Castle – within a stone’s throw from Dessau and Berlin.
What Design Can Do for sustainable fashion
At the What Design Can Do conference fashion was an important theme with speakers Suzanne Lee and Catarina Midby tackling the sustainable fashion debate.
Inspired by India
