People of DDW: Volunteers

20 October 2019

Selection of volunteers at DDW19
Meet the People of DDW! Every day, we highlight a different group of dedicated team members who make this festival possible. From members of the construction team to volunteers, from drivers of the Renault ZOE Design Rides to the participating designers, we ask them everything! Today in the People of DDW: The volunteers.
