Foundry34 is really pleased to see the DOTT 07 (Designs Of The Time 07) programme kick off in the North East this month. This series of events is dedicated to, in their words, ‘explore what life in a sustainable region could be like – and how design can help us get there’. It’s great to see an event like this outside of London, firstly because it enables designers to engage with a wider public and show how design can make real and relevant contributions to our communities and secondly to show we have some of the brightest talents in design working in the North-East at the moment. Get along to an event if you can. www.dott07.com
