Are you interested in the ideas and expression of tomorrow’s designers and artists? Welcome to Konstfack at Telefonplan, to Stockholm Furniture Fair and to Sergels Torg during Stockholm Design Week. We’re showing what eating, design, artistic education and a sustainable future have in common through multiple exhibitions and a panel discussion.
At Konstfack 4–8 February, 12–6 pm, the following exhibitions are open:
# Degrees of a School Lunch 2060, in collaboration with Beteendelabbet and WWF
# Products for Eating and Cooking, in dialogue with young users with special needs, a collaboration with Kung Saga
# Prolonging the life span of the Better Shelter modules, creating safer, more dignified living conditions for displaced people worldwide
# Interiors, furniture & fabrication in relation to society, history and the art of inhabiting spaces
# The Black Beach REMIX, a magazine inspired by an artistic research project
# The Space as Luminaire, on light and materiality
# Air ship, in collaboration with Oceansky cruises
On Wednesday 5 February, 2–4 pm in Svarta Havet, an interdisciplinary food for thought panel addresses:
- imagining and preparing for the future through foresight and speculative design
- where culinary arts and design meet and how to inspire sustainable actions
- experimental preservation and archive studies creating new narratives
