DesignGuide.tv Brings Cutting Edge Design in Easily Digestible Video Chunks
In my ever expanding quest to find quality videos of cutting edge designs and designers I've stumbled upon the work of a website called designguide.tv. It's really not clear as to who produces these videos, but from what I can gather the videos are made by a guy named Robert Andriessen. Robert (as I will call him because his last name I've butchered) is the founder, apparently of yet another intriguing design site called the Young Designer's Network found at www.ydn.nl. YDN, for short has a very ambitious mission statement:
YDN Young Designers Network is a platform for young talented designers where they look for inspiration, gain new contacts, and share experiences they’ve had when coming in contact with real life jobs. We’re creating a bridge between companies and designers, making communication as clear as possible from both perspectives. YDN aims to include as many disciplines as possible to get the broadest view and openness.
It appears that YDN has also fostered several design events and even published a magazine, although the magazine looks as if it is no longer in print. But probably the most interesting bit of content produced by Robert so far is his videos at some of the most interesting and insane design events. These events include the opening of a Droog event I've included above called "Dry Tech" to a very exciting look at the graduating exhibition of Design Academy Eindhoven, one of the world's premier design schools. It is these unfettered and almost behind the scenes looks at events I've only imagined going to that will make in European (and especially Dutch) design lover slobber over.
- For the easily digestible good bits of video, I've also collected my favorite videos of designguide.tv (here). Look for all the posts titled Revver.
