Latam Creative Talent 

The Shapes of Nature. A story by Latin-American designers 

This exhibition opens up a conversation about the relationship between design and nature through proposals from Latin American designers, discussing and identifying possible sustainable futures. From their inspiration or the message behind their projects to the materials, production systems and techniques used, ‘The Shapes of Nature’ aims to capture the value of nature as a starting point for all design projects.​ 

The exhibition is the result of the second edition of IED Latam Creative Talent, an initiative with the objective to recognise Latin American talent and to showcase the best projects that have won prizes in their respective countries.
