From May 7 to 22, 2026, the gallery becomes a&nbsp;platform that opens up space for new beginnings, learning without fear of mistakes, and supports the path of experimentation or personal motivation to create.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How is good design created?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Design is not a&nbsp;one-time idea, but a&nbsp;creative process. It is created through trial, error and repetition. Designers and craftsmen often start without a&nbsp;clear plan or prior preparation and learn directly while creating. This process needs a&nbsp;safe and open space for experimentation, where it is possible to learn without fear of failure and to seek a&nbsp;personal form of expression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Passion and a&nbsp;relationship with creation play an important role in this process. It is this that encourages us to continue even when something goes wrong, and to gradually transform failure into a&nbsp;prototype and then into a&nbsp;finished object.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The exhibition presents design as a&nbsp;path of growth and learning. It does not focus only on the final form of the works, but on the process that led to them and the personal value that the authors create with their work in the process. It shows design as a&nbsp;human and open process, in which experimentation and work with time and personal aesthetics have their place.<\/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>: Eli\u0161ka Coufalov\u00e1, Diana Vajdiarov\u00e1<\/mark><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\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>How do I&nbsp;get to the exhibition?<\/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><strong>Public transport:<\/strong>\u00a0By far the closest stop is\u00a0<strong>\u0160koln\u00ed<\/strong>, with\u00a0<strong>N\u00e1m\u011bst\u00ed M\u00edru<\/strong>\u00a0as another nearby option.<br><strong>By car:<\/strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-white-color\">\u00a0<\/mark>You can park on\u00a0<strong>Hradsk\u00e1 Street<\/strong>\u00a0or in the car park beneath the Congress Centre.
