Class of 25

Class of 25 + the Avenue Of Fresh Perspectives.

This annual group exhibition showcases the most impressive graduation projects from various Dutch and international academies at Dutch Design Week. This annual exhibition emphasizes the importance of education and puts the next generation of designers in the spotlight among the general public, aiming to allow the story of each individual academy to reflect on the current theme of Dutch Design Week: Past, Present, Possible.

In addition, each academy showcases one specific project at the front of it’s presentation. Together, these projects form the Avenue of Fresh Perspectives. These are the projects that capture the current zeitgeist and, together, provide an overview of where the next generation of designers will make a difference.
