With the pandemic and shelter in place cramping our collective need to hop from one studio to the next this year, we’ve had to get a little creative.
The Studio Crawls will take place in a livestreaming format with each studio having 30 minutes to give attendees a little reprieve from all the daytime panel discussions and workshops. A little bit of a variety show, surprises abound while studios create experiences to entertain: Live designing, virtual product demos mixed with making cocktails, video tours of home workspaces and more.
Login and participate by socializing with friends (or meeting new ones!) in the chat pod, give your studio hosts hi-fives, send emojis or submit questions to be answered live.
Plan to login to the livestream during the designated times with your friends, crack open a beer or sip a glass of wine and prepare to have fun!
Get an All-Access Pass The All-Access Pass gets you in to all the studio crawls plus over 150 San Francisco Design Week Events over 10 daysSchedule:

Hybrid Design
7:30 PM
We are problem solvers, improvisors, artists, craftspeople, thinkers, collectors, adventurers, roll-up-our-sleeves doers. We are a collection of people who love intersections: Mediums, cultures, genres, tastes, industries, techniques, forms, materials, personalities, ideas-smashing, crashing, hugging, high-fiving (from a distance). To us, the way the world tends to divide up design is a tragic oversimplification. We think weird is high praise. We are craft-obsessives, completely in love with the minutiae of typography, materials and experience and we believe that being medium agnostic lets us combine all these intersections into a truly unique perspective on design.”

8:00 PM

Inspired by minimalism he got rid of everything excessive in his own home and continued to ponder on how to take maximum advantage of the living space. Since a dining table and a bed are seldom used at the same time, he figured they could be combined. Tablebed has been awarded with the appreciated Design from Finland mark. At the space saving furniture market it is rare that both beautiful design and high functionality is reached, but Tablebed did just that. Since launching the product to the market Tablebed has been selling both to individual consumers and also to the contract business clients, e.g. to Forenom, which is Nordic region’s leading serviced apartment provider and has 6500 serviced apartments, aparthotel and hostel rooms in all major Scandinavian cities, accommodating over 100 000 travellers every year.
