The Best in Dutch Design
8th April - 2nd May, 2010
The Red Dot Design Museum
Essen, Germany
This month, the Red Dot Design Museum in Essen, Germany is hosting a special exhibition of the ‘Best of Dutch Design’, which will showcase the finalists and winners of the Dutch Design Awards 2009. The show will run from April 8 to May 2, and it seeks to demonstrate the two main trends in contemporary Dutch design: firstly, the commitment to create a truly useful and functional product, and secondly, the desire to create a perfectly designed and structured form.
The works on view come from three categories: “communication design”, “product design” and “spatial design”. The exhibition includes works by Studio Wieki Somers, Maarten Baas, Thonik, Philips Design, Gert Dumbar, and Jelte van Abbeme among others.
