German Design Graduates 2026
16 October to 29 November 2026

About the Exhibition<\/strong>
German Design Graduates is an initiative for design graduates in Germany.
The initiative presents outstanding final projects from German design universities.
It helps graduates take their first steps into professional life.
It also connects them with companies, museums and other cultural organisations.
German Design Graduates is part of the German Design Council Foundation.
Around 70 projects were selected for the exhibition at Die Neue Sammlung \u2013 The Design Museum.
The projects come from 28 German universities.
The exhibition includes work from different areas of design:
–\u00a0Product and industrial design
–\u00a0Communication and digital design
–\u00a0\u00a0Textile and fashion design
The projects explore important questions of our time.
For example:
–\u00a0How can waste be turned into new materials?
–\u00a0How can we use digital technology in useful ways?
–\u00a0How can design make knowledge easier to understand?
–\u00a0How can design help more people take part in society?
–\u00a0 How can we create new ways of living together?
The main theme of the exhibition is Make It Make Sense<\/strong>.
This phrase comes from the internet.
It means something like: \u201cMake it understandable.\u201d
People use the phrase when something does not seem logical.
They also use it when familiar explanations are no longer helpful.
The phrase makes an important point:
We need to understand how things are connected.
We also need to make difficult subjects easier to understand.
The projects explore materials, production methods, technology and communication. They also look at changes in society and at how people live together.
The designers question existing systems.
They test new ideas and different ways of working.
They also ask questions that do not yet have simple answers.
The exhibition therefore shows many different sides of design.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n
