Design connects. That has been demonstrated by the Passionswege year after year. Alongside international designers and companies that produce locally, the Festival’s oldest format once again teamed the VIENNA DESIGN WEEK with the Vienna Economic Chamber – an agile duo that showcased the range and creativity of Vienna’s handicraft production and devoted itself to examining various synergetic effects of business and design in the form of a discussion followed by a get-together. A partnership entirely in the spirit of the symbiotic Passionswege.

Panel discussion with Wolfgang Hufnagl (Vienna Economic Chamber, master of the Vienna guild of handicrafts), Lilli Hollein (VIENNA DESIGN WEEK), designers, and businesspeople.
