Just a five-minute walk from Eindhoven Central Station, at WestCord Hotel Eindhoven, alumni of Design Academy Eindhoven present their latest work. In the very building where it all began for them: the Lichttoren.

The Light tower

The Lichttoren is known as one of Eindhoven’s most iconic landmarks. This former Philips factory is home to both WestCord Hotel Eindhoven and Design Academy Eindhoven. A place where innovation takes centre stage.

The Work

Designers Aaron Preyer and Emma Werkhoven carefully curated a group of designers, each with their own unique story. Furniture, ceramics, lighting and publications.
This exhibition brings together a variety of disciplines and offers visitors a glimpse into how different generations of designers turn their ideas into tangible creations. You can expect lots of new work!

The Designers

Participating designers include: Aaron Preyer, Emma Werkhoven, Jelmer Nijp, Lotte Schoots, Kiki van Eijck, Joost van Bleiswijk, Matthijs Koerts, Ralf Gloudemans, JVD2 studio, Filip Pista and Tom Schoonhoven (With more to come!)

About Designers at the Light Tower

We are a collective of alumni from the last decade(s). Where we once walked the same halls, we now come together once again to show how we’ve grown since this very impactful time in our careers. Connected by our love for our craft and creativity.
