The designfrische looks at the networking of local designers and companies from different sectors and wants to point out the potential of the “impact of design” in rural areas. The spectrum ranges from individual pieces by the wooden jewelry manufactory astwerk to locally made cosmetics by Naturgestöber, the Villa Volatile exhibition in the carpentry and the interior design by the SelfSightSeeing Company. The designer duo Itshe & Io turn the rooms they designed in Trahütten into ‘walk-in’ stations. While the two adventure suites – Alban Berg and Alma Mahler – in the listed Villa Alban Berg refer to their historical residents in terms of design, Casa Tondolo combines the grown retro-Alpine coloring of the former Lernpeiss guest house with the individual artistic approaches to a food design based cuisine. The core of the designfrische is the exhibition In_Organic Symbiosis, which Moya Hoke, as designer in residence in Trahütten, will both develop and present in the Sagmeister art space. She combines lamps made of translucent porcelain with artistic material research into skin-like symbiotic bacterial and yeast colonies from Kombucha production. Visitors have the opportunity to be creative themselves within the framework of the exhibition and thus to actively ‘grasp’ the special material as well as the production process.
