The Format show tasks designers to come up with ‘visually enticing solutions to portray their interpretation of the given space’ – in this case the limitations of a sheet of A2.

We’re also looking forward to seeing the work of Tomás Louro, whose work is inspired by ‘the early ‘70s funky disco movement in Chicago, the Detroit techno scene of the late ‘80s and the New York hip-hop culture from the mind-‘90s.’
