Made in Angola

In Angola, a bottom-up design movement is emerging. It takes its competence from artisanal skills and local sustainable materials and creates products with a strong local identity. These productions are made in laboratories located in the city of Luanda, helping to create skills and job opportunities for the weakest sections of the population. The Made in Angola exhibition tells the story of emerging Angolan design, its places, protagonists, and products. The exhibition is created through a co-creation process that involves different local actors (artisans, videomakers, architecture students, urban explorers, and cultural animators) in a design workshop held in Luanda.
