The Dutch design studio Atelier NL believes that design has the ability to connect local communities to the valuable resources that surround them. Lonny van Ryswyck co-owner of the studio will speak at DesignTalks 2024, taking place in Harpa April 24th. 

“We believe that the methodology of Atelier NL research-driven but approachable and human is so important today. This elevation of the local is so fascinating,  or as they put it  themselves: ‘Think global, dig local’” Hlín Helga Guðlaugsdóttir, curator DesignTalks 

DesignTalks 2024 addresses global imbalances and extremes. In the current cosmic chaos, balance is sought with the mindset of the creative adventurer, and a dash of the laissez-faire attitude of the ropedancer, bravely making his way to land. 

In the circus ring ideas are kept in the air, genius is fiery and flying is high! ! The abundance of information, the lack of raw materials, the possibilities of the local environment, reconstruction, the global family and inner peace will be on the palate.

In this seductive magical world, anything is possible, but beneath the surface simmers the unexpected and, at times, the somewhat unpleasant.

Early bird tickets are now available to this popular event that has been sold out the last few years. Do not miss a full day of inspiration, innovation and creative powers!
