Eco-Design Center

The Imaginarte Eco-Design Center is a collection of creativity workshops dedicated to finding innovative new uses for recycled products. The workshops employ local residents who work under the direction of one or several product designers. The spectacular products are sold in the Imaginarte Gallery Store and distributed in boutiques throughout the region.

The Eco-Design Center welcomes visiting artists to help us design and create new products.

General direction for the design center in 2011/12 is held by graphic artist and interior designer, Ana Ramos Maurer.
