BerliNordik – Forum for sustainable design

May 7, 2010

BerliNordik – Forum for Sustainable Design – is an international platform that brings together young talented designers from Berlin with their colleagues from the Nordic countries on the subject of sustainable design.

After “bright green fashion”, the successful project beginning together with Copenhagen in 2009, BerliNordik will be held this time in Berlin and host its Nordic partners in the German capital.

The project partners CREATE BERLIN, the International Design Center Berlin (IDZ), INPOLIS UCE GmbH and the co-founder Fashion Patrons developed the visions and themes for BerliNordik: A public discourse, a targeted promotion of young, talents and a national and international exchange of knowledge. Research and experiences play a central role in the project.

Given that the design industry creates and visualises trends and visions – and, thereby, reaches a very broad public audience – it comes to the fore to anchor sustainability and social responsibility in everyday consciousness. BerliNordik is an investment in the future for everyone involved, which includes both the upcoming generation of designers, and current as well as future consumers. Conducting business in a truly responsible way and keeping an eye out for the future also demands that those working in the design industry foster new ways of working, new principles, an intense exchange of knowledge and the use of innovative and alternative materials and technologies.
