Videos

We have produced some videos to inform you about our design school: How does studying work during a pandemic, what are the main focuses of our teachers, and where did our graduates end up? – Enjoy!

Why study design at all, and why in Pforzheim?

We asked four of our professors: What is special about us, what is the 'Pforzheim spirit', and what does it take to be a successful creative student? Thomas Gerlach, Evelyn Echle, Sebastian Hackelsperger and Silke Helmerdig provide answers. They all agree: Creativity is the currency of the future and we provide a great training!

Studying design in Covid times

Up close: Our students filmed themselves and show how studying works during the pandemic - offline, at home, online, alone, with each other.

Projekt X von A – Z

In dieser Rubrik zeigen wir euch, welche Gedanken hinter den Projekten unserer Student*innen stehen: von der ersten Idee über den Entwurf bis hin zum fertigen Objekt.

X years after PF: Our graduates

Our graduates are scattered all over the world - but still keep in touch with us. We visited them and asked them to show us what they do today. And of course we also wanted to know how they look back on their time at Design PF and what influenced them most. To be continued!
