Deep Time Walk @DDW

Deep Time Walk special edition during Dutch Design Week in collaboration with the BioArt Laboratories

Join us for this special edition of a Deep Time Walk, where we will explore the 4.6bn years of Earth’s history on a guided 4.6km walk through city and nature in Eindhoven during the Dutch Design Week. We physically inhabit the deep timelines that remind us how intertwined our lives are with geology, ecology and culture.

Our journey will take us from the Main Station to the premises of BioArt Laboratories, where you can continue the exploration of key concepts and topics covered during the walk (water, waste, symbiosis, regeneration to name a few), here expressed as fascinating artworks and intriguing installations.

DDW as backdrop for a Deep Time Walk

Dutch Design Week (DDW), organized by Dutch Design Foundation, uses design as a driver for positive social change, with strong emphasis on sustainability and our relationship with nature. Under its mission Thriving Planet, DDW highlights themes such as ecology (climate, water, energy, biodiversity), sustainability (circular design, biobased construction, material innovation, waste), and systemic change (agriculture, industry, behavior, food systems).
