Platform 21: A New Stage for Design, Fashion and CreationPlatform 21, an international centre for design, fashion and creation, opened to the public on Saturday 25 March in its temporary location in the remodelled St. Nicholas church at Prinses Irenestraat 19 in Amsterdam.
This new initiative in the Zuidas district will serve as a meeting point for professional designers, entrepreneurs, researchers, critics, and a growing group of creative amateurs.
Platform 21 responds to contemporary developments.
Its programme varies from short, intensive closed events to broadly conceived activities for the public such as presentations, workshops, shows, lectures and parties.
