As graphic designers, we are constantly dealing with topics that inspire and motivate us. We seek to engage with like-minded individuals, expand our professional network, establish our own platforms and promote creative dialogue. In order to achieve this, we need to design spaces — both literally and figuratively — and attract the attention of a broad public.
Call Me is an exhibition format in which graduates of the Communication Design programme present their bachelor's and master's theses. For eight years now, it has been curated, designed and organized by a small, changing team of dedicated students. Each year, the team embraces the exciting challenge of reflecting on the transition from academia to professional practice. In doing so, they find their own unique answers to questions such as: How can spatial effects be staged in a targeted manner? How can an exhibition concept be developed that reveals the diversity of themes, perspectives and forms of expression? And how can design itself become a connecting narrative element?
Call Me thus becomes a stage not only for final design projects, but also for the collaborative work, curatorial thinking and further development of contemporary design practice.
