About
Under the title Human Nature, designing the equilibrium, eleven Dutch designers and brands answer questions about a future in which Humankind and Nature enter into a new relationship. This theme seems to be made for designers from a country that was once under water. The way in which designers see the future says a great deal about Dutch design culture and how it relates to the issues humanity is facing.
Besides the live interviews on 19 April, the work is exhibited during the entire week.
