Works in Progress

Join us for Works in Progress, a unique evening designed for designers and creative professionals eager to explore the transformative effects of AI and innovative tools on the creative process.

Unlike typical design events that celebrate finished results, this gathering dives into what happens behind the scenes. Our speakers will reveal their live workflows and tool stacks, sharing both successes and challenges encountered throughout their creative journeys.

A huge thank you to Design Zentrum Hamburg for supporting this initiative!
