Forma: Draft – Emerging Designers

Emerging Designers
The next discussion in the ‘Forma: Draft’ series will be entirely devoted to the younger generation of designers. We want to hear your views on working conditions, barriers to development, access to specialist knowledge and tools, and how, from your perspective, collaboration with institutions and the commercial sector is taking shape.
We invite the following to take an active part in the discussion:
- senior students of design courses,
- recent graduates of art and technical universities,
- designers at the start of their careers.
We are particularly keen to hear the perspectives of those whose experience in the industry does not exceed 7 years.
How to apply?
To take part in the event, please send a portfolio consisting of a maximum of 5 slides (in PDF format) to the following email address: design@ipk.gov.pl.
