“To be in Brussels and be part of Design September that brings together design groups from all over the world and at the same time be part of the Sweden week is a challenging and interesting opporturnity. Climate, environment and energy are some of the important priorities of the Swedish EU presidency. The Visual Voltage exhibition presents a number of innovative sustainable solutions that contribute, inspire and increase awareness”.
