Red Dot on Diffus……

How and to which extend do innovative, intelligent and high-tech materials contribute to the development of new products for a better life and a sounder environment? Are there examples for significant projects, where the choice of materials plays an essential role and leads to an improved quality of life and a sustainable development regarding environmental issues? In order to discuss this, the Design Zentrum Nordrhein Westfalen (Germany) together with the organisation committee of PROUD (People Researchers Organisations Using Design for innovation and co-creation) has selected Diffus Design as one of the the speakers for the seminar “Smart Materials for Design and Architecture” to be hold at the Red Dot Design Museum, Essen, tuesday, 3 July 2012 (10.00 a.m. – 4.15 p.m.)

The program is available here.

The special exhibition “Moving Materials” will be held in parallel with the seminar from 3 July to 29 July 2012 in the red dot design museum Design in which DIFFUS will exhibit the “Solar Bag”. Red Dot Design Museum is the design institution known for the “Red Dot Design Awards”, the most influential design award in the world.

The exhibition curated by “Material Senses“, will then travel to the Dutch Design Week in Eindhoven.

(October 20th to 28th).
