Eindhoven – Studio Harm Rensink and Heyniek have curated a group exhibition at Dutch Design Week that explores the impact of digital design on the physical world. Featuring the work of 18 graduate designers, Modebelofte: Digital Realists examines whether the two worlds can ever be considered separate and celebrates the digital age as an enabler of creative innovation.
The collection of works draw on the aesthetics of the digital world and its impact on consumer behaviour. A project by designer COL invites visitors to embody their digital identities in real life, while Christian Stone’s B-movie-inspired Mutant Artisanal fashion collection explores the notion of bringing outdated and obsolete technologies back to life.
An accompanying digital animation by Leeza Pritychenko explores the idea of permanence in an increasingly digital world, something LS:N Global explored in our Virtual Baroque design direction.
