There is a lot going on in terms of design in Brussels the coming weeks: Design September
Launched 2006 within the framework of the Fashion and Design year, the Design September festival brings together fifty events concerned with design in Brussels.
For the fourth consecutive year, a crowd of associations, institutions and other independent organisations have tuned up their violins to offer, between 10 September and 2 October 2009, a rich and varied programme.
This year once again the festival will invite a broad panel of internationally recognised designers: Tom Dixon, Front Design, Mathieu Lehanneur and Barber Osgerby will thus take over from Ron Arad, Patrick Jouin, David Trubridge, the Bouroullecs, Alberto Meda, the 5.5 Designers, Brendan McFarlane, Maarten Baas, Jurgen Bey and Ora Ito.
Extra extra: This year for the first time Design September is organising an international colloquium on packaging design and European awards for design and innovation.
Visual Voltage is one of few foreign initiatives.
All for now
