Revealing and mapping the Unknown

The world of tomorrow will be shaped by the thoughts and fantasies of today.


Seven design graduates from the UdK Berlin, all have different backgrounds and different visions. What they have in common is curiosity and the drive to shape, to visualise and to feel their ideas. 'Not knowing yet’ has been their drive to research, discuss and create.

In their group exhibition they address issues of urban ecosystems, circular production, gender equality and new ways of living. ‘Sometimes design processes can be linear. But more often than not, you find interest in unexpected corners, change directions and move from the expected outcome to a new unknown.’

The UdK design graduates invite you to join their exploration of the future, mapping society, socio-political conditions, challenges and new design visions.

Open Frontiers of Thought

Did you know that you can print your own breast prosthesis, that the future is inflatable, that your smart home could soon be controlled through sculptural ceramic elements and that trees can talk to you?



While the unknown fuels our curiosity and creativity, we are also deeply rooted in what we know, read and see. As creatives, rather than presenting the illusion of a perfect solution, 7 graduates from UdK Berlin aim to share their knowledge and findings as new approaches and visions. Maybe they know something you don't?

What you might get to know is what they have discovered in their processes and get a sense of how they see the world.


What you will learn is their visions of different futures, seen through the different lenses through which each sees the present.

They cannot foresee all thoughts and ideas and next steps, not ours, not yours, but would love to see you at the exhibition, to share thoughts about the unknown and show the shape they have given it along the way.
