In March and April 2019 Christian Schüten and Eric Pfromm were invited by the China Academy of Art in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province.
They taught an 8-day-workshop on circular economy with students of product design in 6th semester. The students are very diligent and productive. Five circular economy design concepts and designs were shown at the final presentation. They illustrated the exceptional systemic understanding and work of their creators very well.
The German designers left the beautiful campus feeling good about the positive input they believe to have given these future designers.
Without the help of Pan Wutian it would not have been possible. Many thanks to Dean Wu Haiyan and Professor Zhang Jun Jie for inviting us and giving us the chance to teach a subject that is very important to us.
