DESIGNX50 Designregio Kortrijk Award
Innovative products from Designregio Kortrijk
Every two years, Designregio Kortrijk presents awards for the best and most innovative products from West Flanders. This year, the concepts of design thinking and sustainability were central to the jury's choice.
From delicate light creations in the shape of a Japanese lotus, through invisible doors, smart backpacks and modular swings, to state-of-the-art home automation and solutions in the fight against skin cancer. The variety of contemporary, creative design products is immense and fuels the belief in a positive development of the future. The book is published by Hannibal Publishing and was premiered during the opening event of Kortrijk Creativity Week. A selection of products was shown during the DESIGNX50 expo.
Tim F. Vander Mensbrugghe focuses in an introductory essay on the exact meaning of design thinking. He lets some experts speak and tests the definition against practice by talking to exciting young entrepreneurs.
This is a book for everyone who loves innovation, product development and creative entrepreneurship.
