OVERVIEW

Why doesn't my house grow with me? Can I turn my bed into a desk? What do I actually wear in-home office? Which new material really makes my product sustainable?

For this purpose, we are looking for concepts as well as existing solutions in 11 categories that make a sustainable lifestyle a reality.

In parallel, together with manufacturers, start-ups and universities from all over the world, we are developing possible answers to these questions in 4 special projects – 1. The sustainable, modular Tiny House, 2. Sustainable Interior, 3. Double-loop Home Office Workwear, 4. New Materials.

The Green Product Award and the Green Concept Award are accompanied by an international jury, partners such as the IKEA Stiftung and country scouts who are looking for green innovators around the world.

We show the entries and outcomes at trade fairs such as Neonyt, Heimtextil, Ambiente and on 330sqm at the International Craft & Trade Fair, Munich. On a design trip with Deutschen Design tag under the motto "Designers unpack", selected materials, prototypes and products provide the impetus in 12 German cities for workshops, talks and other projects. The trip starts at Munich Creative Business Week in March. A showroom in Berlin and the construction of the future village settlement are in preparation.
