Although Ontwerpwerk is based in the Netherlands, we travel to many design related events worldwide.
So far we participated in more than 100 activities in 50 cities.
We do so in order to meet with international design industry and design education.
These meetings feed us with information concerning the status of design and provides insights in specific national cultures.
Traveling helps us to sharpen our company’s profile.
