$DESIGN STORIES \/ BRUSSELS$

Join us at Design Museum Brussels for a panel discussion exploring the ways in which women can generate social change through design practices that combine art, craft and technology. Bringing together curators, educators and historians, the event will examine how women-led design can engage and transform communities.

Design Stories is a part of Looking Through Objects: Women in Contemporary Polish Design – a research project exploring women’s contribution to change through design and creative practices. The project includes a touring exhibition, lecture series, talks and interviews organized in different locations across Poland, UK, Belgium and the Baltics.

Design Stories / Brussels panel discussion is a springboard for the upcoming exhibition Looking Through Objects showing at the Design Museum Brussels between 9 May to 28 September 2025.

Design Stories / Brussels and Looking Through Objects is a collaboration between Design Museum Brussels, Polish Institute Brussels, SWPS University and Royal College of Art, and in partnership with Disegno Journal. The initiative is part of the Polish Presidency of the Council of the European Union in 2025.
