Department of Design

Many great design products are created in teaching, in the studios of staff and graduates, and are available through a wide variety of sales channels.

But with the sheer abundance of aesthetically pleasing objects, consumer goods and textile design pieces, it is often difficult to keep track and find the pearls.

“Design Market”, presented on design.zhdk.ch, sees itself as a platform for products that are associated directly or in a broader sense with the Department of Design.

The focus of the product selection and studio presentations is on sustainable production methods and independent design processes.

The designers present themselves at the “Design Market” in pictures, video and text and offer insights into their design philosophies.

From now on, the format will be regularly expanded with new projects and will be accompanied by a talk series from 2023.

The Department of Design at ZHdK hopes you enjoy discovering it!
