And love design?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>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&nbsp;tool of care and concern. It has the ability to create moments of closeness \u2013 to oneself and to others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>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&nbsp;space for this &#8222;intimate dialogue&#8220;. They present design that is caring, considerate and beneficial to everyday life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The exhibition is interactive and we would be happy if you would experience it with us. And if you leave today with the thought &#8222;I&nbsp;could also be in a&nbsp;situation where I&nbsp;feel discriminated against for my needs,&#8220; then believe that &#8222;All you need is design.&#8220;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-light-color\"><strong>Curators: <\/strong>Nat\u00e1lie Vencovsk\u00e1, Gabriela Hrdinov\u00e1<\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-esab-accordion esab-vnkdziw6\" data-mode=\"global\"><div class=\"esab__container\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-esab-accordion-child esab__active_accordion\"><div class=\"esab__head\" role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"true\"><div class=\"esab__heading_txt\"><p class=\"esab__heading_tag\"><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong>What will it be like there?<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p><\/div><div class=\"esab__icon esab__active_icon\"><div class=\"esab__collapse\"> <svg version=\"1.2\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\"><path d=\"m11.3 3.6h1.4q0.2 0 0.2 0.1v16.6q0 0.1-0.2 0.1h-1.4q-0.2 0-0.2-0.2v-16.5q0-0.1 0.2-0.1z\"><\/path><path d=\"m4.1 11.1h15.8q0.2 0 0.2 0.2v1.4q0 0.2-0.2 0.2h-15.8q-0.2 0-0.2-0.2v-1.4q0-0.2 0.2-0.2z\"><\/path><\/svg> <\/div><div class=\"esab__expand\"> <svg version=\"1.2\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\"><path d=\"m3.4 11.1h17.2v1.8h-17.2z\"><\/path><\/svg> <\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"esab__body esab__active\">\n<p>The exhibition is spread across three rooms, each focusing on a&nbsp;slightly different theme.
