WHAT IS BURGER?

Since the field of Industrial Design is very broad and it also keeps broaden itself, we often ask ourselves: ‘what can I do with my IDE knowledge later?’ 

Therefore we organized ‘Burger’. This name refers to the dutch word ‘Burger’: when you are not a student anymore, you will become a ‘citizen’. And the fact that your knowledge pack is assembled by yourself, for yourself. Since each burger can be customized so easily by your own taste.

Since the COVID-19 pandemic, we have been working on the transformation of our offline community to an online community. Burger online is part of this transformation. Burger online is a 2 weeks event from April 20th to May 1st. The first week is called ‘Burger Cinema’. During this week, we will watch a design movie every evening at 20:00, discussing the movie on IDiscord in real-time. The second week is ‘Keep up with the Designers’. During this week, you will learn about a different designer every day. This designer will tell you about his or her ‘road to design’ and ‘QuaranTime’ during COVID-19. 

Bringing people together is important during this time and ‘Burger’ will give designers and design students a platform to interact and connect.

We hope to see you then!
