For the nineteenth time, the Łódź Design Festival has become a space for dialogue between the individual perspectives of creators and a broad perspective on global and local issues. Faced with the dynamic changes in everyday life – from technological challenges, through the climate crisis, to transformations in interpersonal relationships – the Łódź Design Festival is paving the way for discussion, inspiring exploration and creating a space for reflection on the role of contemporary design and the importance of traditional craftsmanship. This is where the slogan for this year's design festival comes from: nie_koniec / u_end , which emphasizes inquisitiveness and curiosity in design, the ability to seek alternative paths for contemporary design.
BlueWorld, or the extraordinary power of cobalt
One of the highlights of ŁDF 2025 was the BlueWorld exhibition, prepared with our support. In a story encapsulated in a container, the exhibition's curators, Magdalena Gazur and Katarzyna Świętek, treated cobalt not as a color but as an echo of the old masters. A magical pigment steeped in the tradition of Bolesławiec ceramic craftsmanship, it symbolically united the exhibition, showcasing artisanal craftsmanship, a variety of stamp designs, and a fresh perspective on contemporary artistic craftsmanship.
The magic of the iconic Bolesławiec stamp
Iconic Bolesławiec stamps, with their rich array of designs, transcend established ceramic patterns, inspiring the creation of fresh forms, innovative products, and fascinating stories. The power of traditional designs intertwines with modernity, intertwining, seeking new paths and shared values. Because in a world dominated by facetious trends, where old narratives are crumbling and dominant ones are repackaged, we often search for what might be at the end… unchanging, enduring, and connecting different perspectives. Permanence. That which a traditional Bolesławiec stamp can symbolize.
A contemporary interpretation of traditional craftsmanship
The BlueWorld exhibition is a journey into the depths of cobalt blue, where tradition meets innovation, and the iconic ceramic stamp is a guide to the world of artisanal beauty and its contemporary interpretation - from composite washbasins and bathtubs from the BlueDot line ( Serenity and PolkaDot collections) implemented by our brand - RAVON - through new ceramic designs (Manufaktura in Bolesławiec), to hand-woven carpets (SAMARTH) and modern designs prepared by the Pol / Sztyma / Wolna group.
BlueDot as part of a shared heritage
For us, the BlueDot collection is a personal extension of this year's theme – nie_koniec / u_end – and a craftsmanship manifesto. We believe that combining innovation with the value of traditional craftsmanship is a path that rediscovers the value of Polish design and introduces a language of communication common to all generations.
