We are having a showcase called A Cup of Attaya at B&D Studios in Newcastle, as part of the 2013 Northern Design Festival (this year’s theme is Create:Digital).

During ten days (from 10-19 October), we will inhabit the space of B&D Studios, redecorate it with interactive installations, demos of work-in-progress, and have a chill-out salon area where we’ll welcome visitors with a nice cup of West-African Attaya tea and traditional Swedish cookies (Why, you ask? Because they’re tasty! Yum yum yum).

Back in Manchester for the annual FutureEverything festival. Or summit, as they called it this year. It’s quite fascinating how different the festival is from one year to another. Always very nice to catch up with old friends, bump into fellow Geordies, see some familiar faces and also meet some new ones. Didn’t get a chance to catch any of the amazing music programme this time around though. Sniff!

Hurray!

Attaya Projects was selected to be featured in this year’s Northern Design Festival, organised by Design Event. The festival’s theme will be Create:Digital and it will take place in Newcastle and Sunderland in October.

In Design Event’s own words:

“The festival celebrates the theme of digital and examines how advances in digital technologies over the last few years have had a huge impact across design. These technologies are the new tools and materials of the designer and enable the development of innovative works previously thought unachievable.”

We’re excited!!
