Evaluation

This exhibition discovered the energy of local materials and traditional industries, invited designers from various fields of Taiwan to participate, re-introduced new design thinking, and is making new and interesting proposals for the future. Some include: planning of social design proposals, airport indicators, lunch boxes and contents, brand new designs in gymnastics music and choreography for primary school students, paper development, glass material innovation and opinion leader dialogue. We believe that <2017 Creative Expo Taiwan> can be counted as one of the exhibitions in recent years where the planning team which, entrusted by the Taiwan government, achieved the best performances in concept expression, modernity, sophistication, and brand favorability.
