"BELGIUM IS DESIGN, DESIGN FOR MANKIND"
100 PROJETS/ 10 VALEURS REVELATRICES D'UN BELGE A VISAGE HUMAIN
Cette 6e édition aborde le thème de l'intérêt du design sous un angle sociétal. L'exposition ne dresse pas un inventaire et ne présente pas non plus les toutes dernières nouveautés, mais étudie la manière dont le design peut influencer le mode de vie de l'être humain, à savoir nous, par son impact sur ses besoins fondamentaux.
Des concepts tels que le « design de service », le « design social » et le « design orienté sur l'utilisateur » sont à l'ordre du jour, tout comme la durabilité et la qualité de la vie.
100 projets / 10 valeurs pour un design belge à l’usage de l’homme
Tous les designers et les studios de design sélectionnés ayant conçu les cent produits présentés sont implantés en Belgique. Nous avons attribué à ces produits une valeur humaine importante à nos yeux. Ainsi, nous avons défini 10 valeurs faisant référence à des besoins humains essentiels : l’émotion, la sensibilisation à l’environnement, l’efficacité, la facilité d’emploi, l’intimité, le jeu, la mobilité, la sécurité, la tradition et la vie commune.
Organisateurs : Johan Valcke, Directeur de Design Vlaanderen, partie de l’Agentschap Ondernemen, en collaboration avec Françoise Foulon, Directrice de Grand-Hornu Images

New to the cooperation is that the three Belgian regional institutions in charge of design promotion will
not only share the same communication tools (press releases, website, brochure and of course the widespread
map of Belgians in Milan), but for the first time they will also share the same venue in the FuoriSalone: the
Pinacoteca di Brera. Moreover, a platform will present eight young designers at the Salone Satellite within the
context of the fair.

"BELGIUM IS DESIGN, DESIGN FOR MANKIND"
100 PROJECTS/ 10 REVEALING VALUES OF BELGIAN DESIGN WITH A HUMAN FACE
The theme of the sixth triennial is the social significance of design. The exhibition will neither present an inventory nor show the latest products, but will instead examine how the impact of design on mankind’s fundamental needs can influence the lifestyle of ordinary people. There will be a focus on such concepts as “service design”, “social design” and “user-centred design” and also on sustainability and quality of life.
100 projects/10 values for mankind
All designers and design studios that designed the 100 products selected for the exhibition are based in Belgium. We chose the products for what we consider their significant human values, of which we defined 10. The ten values refer to essential needs of mankind: emotion, environmental awareness, efficiency, convenience, intimacy, playfulness, mobility, safety, tradition and community.
