In just 1m2 of ground space we will exhibit as many designers as possible. To give opportunity to starting, self taught and student designers for exposure, as well as making a statement about the inclusivity of design festivals.

What do we do?

We provide alternative and interdisciplinary exhibition space at important design events where a group of diverse individuals are given the opportunity to show their work to a large (inter)national audience.
We investigate, test and use an inclusive selection process method.

We collect valuable insights into the design industry through conversations with visitors of design events and the design community.
We are a safe space for conversation, listening and learning. Opening up the conversation with the organisers of design festivals to reflect and improve.

We challenge the conventional aesthetic of exhibition design, providing a high engagement rate in the story as a whole and for the individual works.
