Does design need love? And love design?
We believe that it does. We often encounter an approach that is primarily focused on profit and the quantity of production, while user needs recede into the background. This exhibition is based on the belief that design can be a tool of care and concern. It has the ability to create moments of closeness – to oneself and to others.
The exhibition All you need is design is based on the basic human need for love and raises the question of how much contemporary design can reflect it. You will see student and advanced projects that have set out to create a space for this “intimate dialogue”. They present design that is caring, considerate and beneficial to everyday life.
The exhibition is interactive and we would be happy if you would experience it with us. And if you leave today with the thought “I could also be in a situation where I feel discriminated against for my needs,” then believe that “All you need is design.”
