Praten over ontwerp, Part 1
AIGA XCD TalkingDesign goes to Rotterdam! Our TalkingDesign Session features graduates from the Willem de Kooning Academy (WDKA)
Introduction
The Academy has just launched the Cultural Diversity minor, in collaboration with students from the Department of Cultural & Social Studies (CMV) at Rotterdam University.
Research for the Project is commissioned by a partner from the City of Rotterdam. This season’s partner was the Historisch Museum Rotterdam (HMR), initiator of the Roffa 5314 project, named after Rotterdam South, zip code 5314. The programme focuses on Dutch youth’s life-style, i.e, clothing, style, language…as well as publicity about events organised by HMR.
WDKA’s primary goal is to get more involved with the City’s urban culture and cultural diversity. Research topics covered streetculture, social design, global design and non-western typography.
Many thanks to Mark Mulder, Programme Coordinator, for facilitating these interviews.
