About the Event
The Designmetropole Aachen is a collective of Aachen designers and artists who have dedicated themselves to a lot
of different subject areas. At the beginning of the year they moved to their new home in the middle of the
Frankenberg Viertel. The former canteen and kitchen of the Vereinigte Glaswerke were converted into creative
workspaces and serve as the headquarters of our Newcomer Friday.
A colorful evening awaits you: first, some members of the Designmetropole Aachen will introduce themselves and
their works and projects. Afterwards, one-hour guided tours through the Frankenberg Viertel in German and English
are scheduled, during which you will learn about the history of this beautiful district. Fabian Seibert will also take you
on a short stroll through his home district (well, he lives about 6 meters out if!), where he will present a few corners,
shops and pubs that are particularly close to his heart. In between and afterwards there will be plenty of opportunities
to meet other newcomers and local designers over a few snacks and drinks.
