DESIGN ON TAMPERE- FIRST DESIGN WEEK AT TAMPERE, SEPTEMBER 2009!

Super Mukava, a Finnish designers’ shop, launches the first Design Week in Tampere in association with Design Boulevard, Sistustus ID, Ateljeekatu and Ovélia. Super Mukava started organizing Designtori- design markets in Tampere in 2008 and as the crowd grew the demand for a bigger event was recognized.

This years’ Design Week will give a sneak peak of future events in the upcoming years. The aim is to reach more and more people who are interested in design, arts, creativity, sustainable development and quality. We are hoping that Design On Tampere- week will make it easier for people to approach design and designers and to learn the values and stories behind the products.

The goal is to introduce Tampere’s design suppliers and to add value to the design genre in Tampere both nationally and internationally.
