Dutch Design Week: Great Experience for V DESIGN LAB


V DESIGN LAB has been exhibiting its jewellery at the Dutch Design Week 2017. 

V DESIGN LAB at the Dutch Design Week 2017

New pieces and existing collections have been showcased at Yksi Design Shop, Eindhoven's Design destination during the design week and for the remaining 51 weeks of the year.

It all happened thanks to Shapeways, which selected V DESIGN LAB, and that allows to digitally handcraft jewellery and a lot of other products.

A few pieces have been exclusively made in line with the Dutch Design Week's theme: STRETCH.

The word "Stretch" has been interpreted in different ways:

    1. its literal meaning - so the INGRANAGGI Hoop Earrings and Pendant have been stretched to form a new, longer (i.e. stretched) design. See photos below.

      2. its metaphorical meaning "Stretch it too far" - so exaggerating something with the FLOWER POWER Pendant that has been cut in half and redesigned as a peculiar butterfly

      Stretch it too far: Butterfly

        3. Adding some Fun - so colourful elastic bands have been added to the INGRANAGGI Hoop Earrings to make these earrings more playful, building on an idea of a few years ago when I had just started modelling silver by hand.

          It has been a great experience to see the amazing energy of Eindhoven, experience the Dutch Design Week, meet with people, receive a lot of positive feedback and engage with the Dutch public (and not only) who's very friendly and interested in design and what designers and makers do.

          Also an opportunity to meet a lot of the Shapeways team members, who made this experience possible, both the Dutch and the US team who flew all the way from NYC just to support all of their designers.

          By the way, V DESIGN LAB has also been interviewed! :)
