Southern Sweden Design Days 2021
27–30 May 2021, the very first edition of Southern Sweden Design Days took place – a new international design festival in Malmö.
Southern Sweden Design Days 2021 was the start of a new annual event that highlights and builds knowledge about design – focusing on sustainability, collaboration, development and innovation. For four days, a platform was created showcasing a full range of design disciplines through seminars, workshops, exhibitions and networking events. Southern Sweden Design Days was organized on the initiative of Form/Design Center – the main venue for architecture, design and crafts in southern Sweden.
Theme 2021
The theme for Southern Sweden Design Days 2021 was “1 + 1 = 3”. The theme encouraged collaborations and cross-fertilisation with the aim of highlighting the region’s openness and locality. The theme could be seen as a symbol of synergy and sustainability – to solve existing and future challenges there is a need to collaborate, innovate and bring new equations to the table. The theme was open to interpretation and could be a meeting between materials or techniques that form a new whole, different expressions and styles combined in an innovative manner or it could encourage different industries or disciplines to merge.
Programme 2021
Seminars, workshops, panel discussions, interviews and much more – all digital content from 2021’s event is available on demand. You can also watch the full SSDD Studio broadcasts or pick your favorites from the tableau.
