The Design Case with Kaemingk B.V.

Over the past three weeks, S.G. Daedalus has engaged in a collaborative project with a giant in the seasonal decorations market, Kaemingk B.V.. Our members got the opportunity to design new Christmas decorations for Kaemingk’s international market. The skills of our students matched perfectly with Kaemingk’s innovative vision, resulting in some promising product concepts!

Kaemingk welcomed our members to their 8000 m2 showroom, where they showed their newest Christmas collection. Our members got to know their products and brands, which served as a great start to the creative ideation process.

Throughout the case, the participants were able to apply their creativity and Industrial Design Engineering skills for a tangible, real-world application.

This collaboration is not the first between S.G. Daedalus and Kaemingk, multiple design cases have taken place before. A concept from our last collaboration, the plant light, was successfully brought onto the market and has been in Kaemingk’s collection for the last three years.

On behalf of S.G. Daedalus we extend our gratitude to all participants and Kaemingk B.V. for the partnership that made the collaboration and design case reality!

 

Reflecting on the memorable trip to the Red Dot Design at S.G. Daedalus!

On March 12th, S.G. Daedalus embarked on an excursion to the renowned Red Dot Design Museum, accompanied by our dedicated members and staff. With a grand total of 145 attendees, the museum visit was nothing short of a resounding success!

The Red Dot Museum showcases exceptional products recognized by an international panel through the prestigious Red Dot Design Award competition.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined and of course to @reddotdesignmuseum. For everyone who was not able to attend, we hope to revisit the Red Dot Design Museum next year again so it would be fun to see you there!

Followers of the S.G. Daedalus Instagram account have had the opportunity to vote for their favourite design that has been posted on the InspiratIOn_Board Instagram page. The creation which has been voted on the most now has won a spot on the news feed, right where you are here! Therefore, we are excited to announce the very first Designers of the Month: Lieve Heres and Falco Weel with their magazine stand! You can read more about it below:

 

The first project is one which is soon to be seen in the StudIO! Lieve Heres and Falco Weel together designed a magazine stand for the InDepth, the magazine of S.G. Daedalus. Below, you can read how they designed it! 

 

“When I joined the committee for our magazine, InDepth, I found out a lot of people didn’t know about it’s existence. When I suggested we made a stand to go in the StudIO, I was asked to do it.

I got to work coming up with a design I liked and bought all the necessary materials. Together with a friend of mine from ME we got to work to weld, grind and paint to put it all together.

It was really fun to do and it was nice to see how much you improve after just one day.

I hope it can soon stand in the StudIO in all it’s glory.”
