How can design shape our future? What ideas, questions and strategies occur to designers as they develop future visions? How do we want to live tomorrow?
The film, promoted by the Museum für Kunst & Gewerbe Hamburg, engages with these pivotal questions, asking artists, designers and exhibition makers for their input.
For the Ask Me If I Believe in the Future project, a group of international designers is invited to reformulate their expectations and visions for the future: the Greek design studio Objects of Common Interest, run by designers Eleni Petaloti and Leonidas Trampoukis in Athens and New York; designer Erez Nevi Pana from Israel; Carolien Niebling from Switzerland; and the multidisciplinary design studio Zaven from Italy with designers Enrica Cavarzan and Marco Zavagno.
The film develops some topics of the exhibition project, visiting the designers in their studio, environment and landscape. The four designers invited have different approaches and backgrounds and this film wishes to explore the process behind their installation and their creativity and design method. Visiting the designers in their studio means also discovering their inspiration and their surroundings in four different cities.
