In addition to the creative zones, the 2017 Casa Indonesia is also dedicating space for young designers and hosting the Casa Design Challenge.
The 2017 Casa Indonesia’s exhibition director Cosmas D. Gozali said in a press release that the event was a good setting for young designers, professional design consultants and other art creators to collaborate and commercialize their creations.
“The combination of handicrafts as traditional culture and technology will be the new strength for Indonesian designs,” Cosmas added. (kes)
