Deutsche Design Club
The German Design Club (DDC) stands for good design. We are the leading club for designers of all disciplines in the German-speaking world. We view design as a bridge between aesthetics, function, and social change. For over 20 years, we have been organizing a non-commercial design competition—initially under the title “Gute Gestaltung” and, since 2021, under “WAS IST GUT” – with the goal of highlighting the value of design as a driver of transformation and innovation. Through our platforms, we promote interdisciplinary exchange and networking, thereby offering an independent space for designers from business, politics, and society to come together.
