of design projects by students, recent graduates, young professionals and design studios. it is
divided into the three events: [d3] contest, [d3] professionals and [d3] schools.

amongst many other invited talents, german textile designer elisa strozyk is showcasing her
wooden textiles carpet made from veneer offcuts. her technique in creating this piece
is to laser cut the veneer pieces and bond them onto fabric. the wooden carpet can lie flat on
the floor, but can also be playfully positioned due to its surprisingly flexible form. conceptually,
her work intends to look at materials in new ways. she is interested in re-evaluating our
presumptions about the resources we use, especially as our environmental wealth
continually diminishes today.
