DMY: Adieu...Until Next Year
Even with Fashion Week and Bread & Butter in town, we still can’t help but feel nostalgia for the good old days of DMY.
For five days at the beginning of June it felt as if every nook and cranny of Berlin was filled to the brim with design. From large scale fair-like exhibitions at Arena and ÏMA Design Village to smaller installations and surprises bubbling up around the city, the makers of DMY truly used the city’s sprawling topography to their advantage.
We particularly enjoyed spending the afternoon at ÏMA Design Village, snacking on treats from the people at The Foodists and chatting with like-minded people as we tried to navigate the maze of objects installed throughout the 10,000 square meter space.
The true stars of the event were the designers exhibited in the Youngsters program, giving us hope for the future of design. Hopefully these guys will return next year, perhaps even earning the title of Allstars.
