Lakescape is a creative platform exploring the relationships between water, design and people. Lakescape connects artisans and designers from the European Great Lakes of Vänern, Ohrid Lake and Balaton to investigate and highlight how humans and water can coexist in sustainable ways. Lacescape will offer fully paid stipend as well as logistic support to 12 designers and artisans, winners of the open call, to develop design line that highlights relation between lakes and humans.
Lakescape is about people, water and design
A Creative Europe cooperation project that brings together artisans, designers, and lakeside communities across Europe to explore how humans and water can coexist in a more sustainable and imaginative way. At its heart is a simple but powerful question: What can the lakes teach us about interconnection, regeneration, and repair?
The Open Call
We invite designers and artisans working in a variety of disciplines and materials (traditional craftsmanship but also innovative sustainable industrial design) —to submit Design proposals that are envisioned with a friendly and fair connection between human and lake ecosystems. With this call, we are opening an opportunity to experiment, research, and prototype sustainable designs that enhance possibilities for the creative community and raise awareness of sustainability in lakeside environments.
