The DMY Design Festival 2015 Photo Review

Yesterday we paid a visit to the opening of the DMY 2015 – the International Design Festival in Berlin. Until Sunday you can still see the exhibition with its new talents and designs. With the Kraftwerk in Mitte the festival team found an amazing new location. Yet, some of the exhibition set-up could have been more adjusted to the cool looks of the industrial building – quite a symbol for the raw Berlin during the 90’s. For some of the exhibitors it appeared to be a challenge to take advantage of the great space as their booths sometimes felt a bit too improvised. Still, there were some really interesting and inspiring designs to see. Have a look at some of our impressions and favorite designs after the jump.

The ‘Firelamps’ by Polish designer Aleksandra Jakuc (in collaboration with the company Supon Bialystok, that produces fire-fighting equipment) made the perfect industrial interior design for the location. You can even spot beautifully coloured fire marks on the metals.

Same as the limestone furniture ‘Calcarenite Series’ by Italian designer Cosma Franscina, that is linked to nature and his motherland Salento, for example.

Also quite interesting are the ‘Artefacts’ by designer Jon McTaggart, that explore the relationship between digital manufacturing tools and local raw materials. You could see 3D-prints of bowls and dishes out of sand and resin.

On the first floor there is an open design workbench by Audi where you could see the works and creative processes of Velt, new contemporary men’s shoes, yesterday. On Friday the topic will be porcelain design with examples from Uta Koloczeck from manuFactory. On Saturday you can experiment with wood design in a workshop from betahaus there.
