Athens Design Forum Details
THE SYMBOL Exemplifying our philosophy of design, the common iron boot scraper that is found in the city of Athens is a testament to the history of design within the urban metropolis. The simple, evocative form, outlines the depth to which design makes itself manifest in the most humble of transitional spaces.THE MOVEMENT Characterized by Salvatore Peluso of Domus Magazine as a "new way of looking at the Greek capital," Athens Design Forum (ADF) is a pioneering non-profit organization whose mission is to re-establish the Mediterranean capital as a historical and contemporary epicenter of creative production. Harnessing Greece's once thriving craft and design industries is a means to enact economic and creative resilience. ADF uses an experiential format to reaffirm the region's craft and design contributions and to align them with an eager international market and audience. Through this commitment, ADF serves the region's makers while advocating for the industry's financial and cultural relevance.ADF's 2021 inaugural programming involved 11 events in 7 neighborhoods and drew on its five pillars – providing access to culturally significant residences and studios, curated exhibitions, seminars, workshops, and initiating archival studies. ADF 2021 was featured in 21 leading international and regional publications, among them Architectural Digest, DOMUS, Wallpaper*, ELLE Decor Italia, and Kathimerini while ADF's digital presence engaged audiences from over fifty-seven countries.
