The NDU St Pölten and its consistent commitment regularly creates scope for ambitious design, which was also true of this contribution in the Festival Headquarters in the Brotfabrik Wien. Young talents from the university presented works produced in cooperation with the furniture and shoe manufacturer GEA (Waldviertler Werkstätten). The students of the bachelor degree course of design, handicraft and material culture gave top priority to – and were most impressive in developing – high-quality and sustainable products in their designs and prototypes. Twenty room partitions and valet stands highlighted in a singular way, how sustainability can be conceived in furniture design.
