Recap: Open Studio x EIDE

Quite a few of you probably followed the live stream of EIDE’s Open Studio as part of the #BBDW24 programme. If not, no worries, because here’s a short recap of the very different morning we had at our office. Spoiler: it was a great plan.
As members of EIDE, we love opening our space to colleagues and future colleagues in the industry. It’s a brilliant opportunity to connect, show what we do and, why not, show off a few cool projects. On 20 November we opened our office doors to young talent keen to find out more about the world of design and how we live it day to day.
We hope the visit was anything but boring. We had a great time explaining how we work, showing some of our projects and sharing our experiences. With plenty of snacks and laughs, of course!

What is EIDE?
For those who don’t know, EIDE is the Basque Design Association, a collective that brings together industrial, graphic, spatial, service and strategic designers from the Basque Country and Navarre. It was founded in Bilbao in 1986 and has since become a design benchmark in our region. Being part of it means being connected with lots of people who, like us, want to take design and services to another level.

Why we do this
Opening our doors and showing what we do reminds us why we like being transparent so much. If there’s one thing we take away from this experience, it’s that sharing what we do and learning from those around us is key to moving forward as a community.

Thanks for coming!
To everyone who dropped by the office or followed along live: thank you! We love sharing our passion and learning together.
If you couldn’t make it, don’t worry, there will surely be more chances to meet. In the meantime, we’ll keep working on what we love.
