In-person event

As part of Barcelona Design Week Off, IED Barcelona, ​​in collaboration with Consorci de Comerç, Artesania i Moda de Catalunya (CCAM), will present an exhibition commemorating the 10th anniversary of the ‘New Crafts Digital Revolution’ project with a carefully curated selection of proposals representing each of its editions.

The exhibition will take place from 7 to 16 October at Il·lacions Design Gallery (La Rambla, 130, principal, 08002 Barcelona).

It will provide a comprehensive overview of the initiative’s impact and evolution, highlighting the collaborative work carried out between young designers and local master artisans in a bid to explore new frontiers and generate innovative and sustainable products that combine artisanal tradition with the latest digital manufacturing technologies. From CNC milling to 3D printing, students have explored new manufacturing methods, learning from the wisdom and traditional techniques of local artisans, resulting in products that stand out not only for their quality and beauty, but also their ability to respond to contemporary design challenges.

The exhibition will also be a platform for reflection on the four conceptual axes that underpin the project: human collaboration, excellence in know-how, innovation in the hybrid era, and beauty as a fundamental value.
