Workshop

Styrofoam workshop - De Kwekerij

Sign up

What starts out as waste becomes the beginning of something new. A forgotten leftover material stream becomes your raw material. You design, build and experiment. On your own or together with others. And best of all? You take your own unique design home with you afterwards. Because design is not just for people who have studied it. Design is for anyone who dares to get started. 

Want to join this workshop? Sign up here.
