4TU Design United Expo

Less Hope More Action! Let’s not be paralysed by ecological crises and threats to democracy; let’s ACT with optimism.

We present 12 frontrunner projects from the 4TUs. No abstract promises, but concrete ideas and tangible designs that shape our future and trigger debate. In these crises we refuse to stay still: we question, intervene, and transform.
