From October 17 to 25, we presented the nominated and award-winning submissions for the German Ecodesign Award 2019 in a virtual exhibition at Dutch Design Week (DDW). The organizers* have found a way to make DDW 2020 happen despite the pandemic - not as usual in Eindhoven but in the digital world.
The theme of this year's edition was the search for new forms of intimacy. The motto ‘The New Intimacy’ fits into a time when contact restrictions force us to find new ways of dealing with each other. DDW's online program consisted of numerous 3D viewing rooms, live streams from and with designers* from all over the world as well as 360-degree videos and TV shows.
