sharing design knowledge

Designboost envisions a holistic approach as a condition for sustainable design. To fulfil this vision we believe in upgrading design competence and boosting competitiveness by knowledge sharing. Our four inter-related platforms, BoostUpgrades: BoostEvent, BoostMedia, BoostResource and BoostConcept can be further explored in our periodical table of design knowledge.

A conceptual installation around compatibility.

We asked seven creative designers/design groups if they were interested to do a personal interpretation of compatibility based on products from the Iittala portfolio. We asked them to be open-minded and see compatibility as to be part of a bigger coherence; connect history/present/future, connect brands, common platforms and human releationship. The designers/design groups are Ilse Crawford, Satyendra Pakhale, Stephen Burks, Folkform, Claesson Koivisto Rune, Ilkka Suppanen and Apocalypse.

We made a catalogue as a documentation of the installations. You can flip through it below.
