Innovative products from Designregio Kortrijk
Every two years Designregio Kortrijk presents awards for the best and most innovative products from West Flanders. This year, the concepts of design thinking and sustainability were central to the jury's choice.
From delicate light creations in the form of a Japanese lotus, through invisible doors, smart backpacks and modular swings, to state-of-the-art home automation and solutions in the fight against skin cancer. The diversity of contemporary, creative design products is immense and feeds the belief in a positive development of the future.
In an introductory essay, Tim F. Vander Mensbrugghe focuses on the precise meaning of design thinking. He gives the floor to a number of experts and tests the definition in practice by engaging in dialogue with interesting young entrepreneurs.
This is a book for everyone who loves innovation, product development and creative entrepreneurship.
