The Estonian Design and Architecture Schools Showcase has become one of the integral parts of the Tallinn Design Festival! Exhibiting Estonia’s own schools’ is increasingly important in a rapidly changing world, because aren't educational and research institutions the places where the play between experimentation and tradition "saves the day"? In the shade of various global crises, there is an increasing need for the light of youthful and clever design.

Showcased are the works of Pallas University of Applied Sciences (Departments of Media Design, Furniture, Leather Design and Textile), University of Tartu Viljandi Culture Academy (Native Crafts studies and the Creative Applications of Cultural Heritage curriculum), Tallinn University Haapsalu College (Craft Technologies and Design) and Estonian Academy of Arts (Product Design).

The modular urban furniture set BENK is the winning entry in Estonia's first 3D concrete printing competition.

The trapezoidal modules can be placed individually or in combination with each other. Thanks to the universal base shape, both the functions and proportions of the modules can be changed.

The product aims to provide a user- and location-specific solution without the additional costs of mold making and labor.
