Design Walz is a way of continuing to share knowledge while traveling around the country, continent or world.
By working in several agencies and companies you are able to build a sustainable network with meaningful contacts. Going on a Walz means expanding your comfort zone while focussing on learning and your creativity. A Walz is based on trust and respect between all participants.
We adapted the idea of the Walz from an old craftsman tradition and want to implement it for Designers. One of the obstacles is the missing contact to a network that could support people on their Walz. So we want to build that community.

The Design Walz is a nonprofit project that helps young designers and creative people to travel and work in different agencies or companies while being able to focus on their creativity rather than money. We want to build a network and community that supports everybody in Design Walz and makes connecting Walzers and Hosts easier.
»After a few years of work experience, I thought I understood the business. But the Walz opened up a new dimension and perspective on design for me.«
