Creativity Lab 13.-19.01.2014

At 2014 imm cologne - one of the world's most important trade fairs for furniture and interior design - Coburg University is present with their students from the Interior Design Department. The idea was to create a Creativity Lab where visitors and guests are involved in the design process of a product. Four simple products can be created on site - an envelope, a lampshade, a cushion and an "any-thing". Get in touch with our students and get to know our University. A very interactive approach from January 13 to 19 in hall 1.1 - inside the d-school section. Link to Hochschulforum
