Design Commissions
Team Thursday was responsible for the graphic design around the exhibition PLASTIC. This Rotterdam-based studio's work ranges from printed matter to spatial design with a conceptual approach, a strong visual language and a special interest in tactile and analogue printing techniques. The studio focuses on identities in the broadest sense, from house styles to integrated design concepts for (cultural) events.
PLASTIC - Promises of a Home-made Future
_PLASTIC: Promises of a Home-made Future_ is the third project in the series about materials and their economic, cultural and social significance. PLASTIC shows how far-reaching innovation in materials has fired the imagination for a century, yet continues to evoke doom scenarios. Once seen as the ultimate material of the future, plastic in recent decades has come to symbolise increasing environmental pollution and blind consumer excess. Yet emerging technologies, in particular the 3D printer, may once again change the applications and significance of plastic.
