Curated by Jan Boelen of Z33, groups of over 120 designers from all parts of the world joined under the mentorship of renowned designers like Aldo Bakker, Rianne Makkink, Tulga Beyerle, Jesse Howard, Aljoša Dekleva, Tina Gregoric, Miha Turšic and Jurij Krpan to create 58 projects exploring the eleven themes of everyday life. The original exhibition took place on three different locations between 18 September – 7 December 2014 in Ljubljana, Slovenia.
