"POLY-SITE 2001 - 2002"

FDL version index

Various Resonance

POLY- "Various..." "Compound" (<-->mono)

SITE - "place."

POLY-SITE is a design platform in which designers present their independent designs.

The aim is to extend the possibilities of design, and to use this platform as an opportunity to converse and present works as a place of experiment and methodology.

It is a reflection upon the origin of design, and the search for the "new."

It is also to reclaim an environment where creativity can be encouraged.

Started on a small scale in the fall of the year 2000.
