New Design from Düsseldorf 2026
New Design from Düsseldorf, organized by the Faculty of Design of the Peter Behrens School of Arts at Hochschule Düsseldorf–University of Applied Sciences in collaboration with design (from) düsseldorf, presents around 50 nominated projects by graduates of the programs in New Craft Object Design, Communication Design, Retail Design, and Exhibition Design. The exhibition takes place at NRW-Forum Düsseldorf, and the accompanying catalog documents and reflects on the presented works, highlighting the innovative design thinking emerging from Düsseldorf.
The projects engage with contemporary social issues—such as identity, gender, feminism, sustainability, education, and science—through experimental and artistic approaches. In doing so, the role of design and the impact of its methods are continuously examined, critically reassessed, and reinterpreted within a rapidly evolving society, with the aim of addressing societal questions and creating new spaces for reflection.
The catalog includes forewords and an essay on the exhibition design process, in which students developed and realized sustainable exhibition furniture specifically conceived for the presentation. In addition, it features project descriptions by the exhibiting graduates, offering insight into their individual concepts, methods, and positions, while celebrating the breadth and quality of design being developed in Düsseldorf today.
