App

Navigate through Dutch Design Week with the app.


With dozens of locations and hundreds of projects spread across Eindhoven, Dutch Design Week is truly grand! It’s no wonder it can sometimes be challenging to find precisely what excites you. But we’re here to help: let us introduce you to the DDW app!

Please note that we are running a pilot with this brand-new app, which is still in development. The app is available for download in the App Store (iOS). We're working on the Android version, but you can already access the app via your web browser.

What can you do with it?

Great, an app! But how does it work? We’d be happy to explain.

Current Location

Where am I, exactly? An excellent question! The app shows you exactly where you are on the map and what’s available in your vicinity: projects and exhibitions, as well as pick-up points for the XPENG Design Rides.

Do you already have tickets?

If not, you can order them right away. If you buy your tickets online, there are no extra costs.

Discover the theme & how to visit Dutch Design Week

Is it real?! Have you forgotten this year’s theme? Or do you want to watch the video that explains exactly how to visit Dutch Design Week one more time? You can find it here!

QR Scanner

In various DDW areas and on the map, you’ll find QR codes. With the scanner in the app, you can quickly discover what information is hidden behind them, allowing you to learn more about the different projects.

Programme

Scroll through the Dutch Design Week programme, filter by area or topic, and add projects to your favourites. You can also navigate to the location of a specific project.

Map

The map shows you exactly what’s where: the locations of exhibitions and Food & Drinks, as well as information such as ticket and information points. You can choose what you want to see on this map. Click on ‘Show’ and select, for example, only ‘Design Rides’. At a glance, you can see where you can hop on!

Food & Drinks

Take a break during DDW at one of the many hospitality locations. Check which hotspots offer food and drink, and you can navigate there easily. You can filter by area or dietary preferences—very handy! If you’re starving, you can also sort the food & drinks list by distance: the venues closest to you will appear at the top of the list!

Locations

Dutch Design Week features many locations throughout Eindhoven. In this overview, you’ll find a list of all locations. Click on ‘Filter’ to view only locations in a specific area or, for instance, only wheelchair-accessible locations. You can also sort locations by distance: those nearest to you will be listed first.

Routes

In addition to routes based on missions and perspectives and the DDW Young routes for children, you can also create your own personal routes in the app! Select your favourite projects from the programme, click on ‘generate route’ in the routes overview, and set off.
