The Dutch at the London Design Festival 2013

The Dutch at the London Design Festival 2013 For many years there has been a strong presence of designers from the Netherlands during the LDF and this year no difference, than only maybe that more and more Dutch designers actually live and work in London. As London is one of the biggest creative hubs in the world, and basically around the corner for us, the UK market bears great opportunities for Dutch designers, but London also serves as a stepping-stone for international recognition.

For the last two years Connecting the Dots published a magazine including a Dutch Design guide and various articles and interviews about the design culture in the Netherlands. Unfortunately we were not able to make a LDF 2013 issue, however we still want to support the Dutch companies and designers and therefore you find the full list of presentations by Dutch designers during the London Design Festival listed below.

If you visit the festival you might like to join the discussion 'Home Office' Tuesday 17 September in the Dutch Centre, with afterwards informal drinks. Hope to see you there. Home Office Discussion with Robert Bronwasser, Sue-An van der Zijpp, Patrick de Louwere

‘Home Office’ is a discussion and networking event that will turn its attention to Dutch design’s response to the evolving contemporary relationship between home and the workplace. Speakers/panellists include Sue-An van der Zijpp, Curator of Contemporary Art & Design at the Groninger Museum; Robert Bronwasser, vaunted designer and the founder of SMOOL and designer Patrick de Louwere of the London-based Studio Lawrence.
