The exhibition Des&Do! has brought together 14 designers with 14 unique manufacturing companies from the Västra Götaland region. Recent graduates have worked side by side with established designers, diving deep into various materials and techniques.

Each team has developed a new product, idea, or concept, focusing on sustainable development, local materials, and the shared knowledge and technology that designers and manufacturers possess together.

With designers and manufacturers who think long-term and continuously strive to improve, step by step, little by little – we see a bright future, moving in the right direction towards a more sustainable and circular future.

The project is run by SPOK Västra Götaland and FORM & folk. Des&Do! aims to inspire more local collaborations and highlight designers, artisans, and local production.
