Yksi Connect connects designers with the industry, provides inspiration, gives directions and resolves issues. Leonne Cuppen was among the founding fathers of the Dutch Design Week and the Designhuis (House of Design) in Eindhoven. She curates, designs and realizes exhibitions that can be seen in other places in the world, from Beijing to Barcelona and from Moscow to Madrid.

 

The exhibition 'Clean Revolution, design for a better world' is curated by Yksi Connect, in collaboration with Studio Mixtura, Studio Volle Kracht and Walter van Hulst. In a challenging and imaginative way, the exhibition brings together the current themes of environment, sustainability, smart materials, well-being, health, safety, technology and creativity.

In 2015, Yksi Connect introduced the exhibition “Vert le Nord! Un panorama du design durable des Pays-Bas” in Paris during the international climate conference, COP21, which took place in Paris at the end of 2015. This exhibition has received a complete update especially for the Global Action Climate Summit that took place last September in San Francisco.
