Design Month Graz bundles and condenses the energy of the local creative industries within one month, makes them visible to the outside world and thus makes a central contribution to anchoring the creative industries in people’s minds.

In 2023, Design Month Graz will take a look at the theme of REVOLUTION. In what way can and should design influence revolutionary processes? What do designers have to do with it? A look at the activist and political climate shows great confusion and frustration. The current mood offers good conditions for disruptive upheavals, i.e. revolutions. Perhaps right now it is causing the radical changes that are needed at many levels of society and the ecosystem. With the thematic focus in Design Month Graz 2023, we hope to help in the search for solutions, because we know that the time for disruptive upheavals has long since come.
