LE DESIGN EN VOYAGE, Ceramic & Food Route

International Design Expeditions (IDE) organises expeditions during which international designers collaborate with local enterprises to create innovative solutions linked to environmental and societal issues. IDE’s programmes also include events, courses and publications. By working in an open-minded spirit and in an experimental way, International Design Expeditions hopes to foster new forms of links between places, terroirs and people to help forge a more sustainable world that respects the living planet. Ceramic and Food Route is IDE's first programme.
