Material Vision 09 – Call For Young Professionals
3 April, 2009 · Leave a Comment
This one goes to the young professionals among us. The German Design Council is inviting fresh graduates to present their works at this year’s Material Vision.
Since this is a call for German speaking countries – please don’t mind me forwarding this in “German only”.
