CO-LAB brings together various voices. We show that design is not just an end product, but a shared process. Here, a design is never "finished"; it's always a work in progress.
Designers, researchers, and local communities collaborated on seven groundbreaking projects, including queer archiving, ecological co-creation, low-tech energy solutions, and open-source tools.
This activity takes place on a location within the low emission zone
