Taking place the last week of October in Eindhoven, Dutch Design Week is an annual event full of exhibitions, workshops and seminars bringing the best of design to several venues across the city. This year, our contributing photographer Cleo Goossens documented her favourite events for Future Positive and left us some notes about the different venues, which you might find useful if you’re planning on attending Dutch Design Week next year.
