Excursion London
The objective is to get first-hand knowledge about what goes on in the design arena. There is plenty of exciting design,happenings, design parties, underground movements. Young designers and teaching institutions from different countries compete on attention.
Second hand markets for design objects, recycling products, material experimenting and much more will inspire some hectic days in London.
In addition Jack Lohman will open doors for us that normally would be closed for most of us. Usually he manages to organise visits at some of the most interesting design and architect offices.
