Are you okay? Are we okay? Is it okay? From the starting point of these questions, the designers Lena Beigel, Tobias Lugmeier, and Georg Sampl reflect upon the role and potential of their design generation. What should be the purpose of design? Which subjects should it address? What do our society and environment need? What happens when design liberates itself from the pressures and expectations of industry? Rather than offer answers, the show asks questions and sets out to search for – and communicate – underrepresented subjects. Three individual works present solutions that seek to encourage us to exchange ideas. From investigating our relationship with industrial-technological products to dealing responsibly with resources, IS OK IT? also invites us to critically question our own work.
