‘Looking for a Social Collection’ wants to revitalize social interaction by encouraging connections between people. Throughout this project, the importance of social encounters in real life will be highlighted and it will be shown how design -in the digital age- can play a stimulating role in this.
Technological developments and the rise of social media are putting more and more pressure on face-to-face contact. The recent Covid-19 pandemic is also contributing to this. We have become scared of each other, in order to prevent a possible infection. T

About Andries De Lange

My name is Andries de Lange, 22 years old and graduate designer. In 2020 I obtained a professional bachelor Interior Design with a specialization in Furniture & Design at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts (KASK) in Ghent, Belgium. Because I have a rather wide technical background, I can put my ideas into practice. My work often contains a certain social or political opinion, with my design I want to put some topics that form our society as we know it in the spotlight and question them.
