The collection of work aims to offer new insights to different phases that would normally never be seen by the public’s eye. By revealing the step of the extensive research process that precedes a design’s final outcome, the collection breathes life into initial concepts and pushes them towards reality. Transcending the fear of copycats, the exhibitors reveal more about their work to the public.
