A round up each of the projects that we delivered during 2020!
We would like to thank each of the organisations that we partnered up with to deliver a number of projects throughout 2020, the designers who have worked with us and contributed their ideas, and to the public for engaging in all of the work we delivered and supported. It was a challenging year in many ways and we were pleased that we could continue to support Dundee based artists and designers during the pandemic, using design as a positive tool for bringing about positive change.

We were thrilled to launch the first volume of CODE Souvenir Dundee as both a paper and online catalogue, which promotes the work of Dundee based designers available to buy as gifts for both tourists and local people!
Late in the year, selected bike racks were installed across the city as a result of Dundee Cycling Forum’s competition where we paired up local designers with young people from across Dundee. We have also been working with Urban Foresight to commission local designers to reimage electric charger feeder pillars in the city centre.
Finally we rounded up the year by partnering up with Dundee City Council’s Events team and V&A Dundee to brighten up empty shop windows with Christmas-tree inspired displays created by local artists and designers.
It was also a pleasure to virtually meet with all of our international sister Cities of Design and extended Creative Cities during virtual convenings, where we had valuable discussions and were inspired by projects from across the world.
