Copenhagen graphic designers, you are in for a treat! Studio Obvious presents designer, educator and graphic design collector Matt Lamont at Designmuseum Danmark. In his talk Matt will walk us through key themes of his incredible graphic design archive Design Reviewed, and discuss how history connects with current design practices. You will also have the chance to browse through the 100 graphic design artefacts Matt will bring with him all the way from the UK. Workshop We believe inspiration should be put straight into action! After the talk you will join Matt for a workshop where you can connect with fellow designers and create posters inspired by his talk and the museum’s collection.
