Depot Basel – Zurich Edition

There’s nothing quite like a invitation to a vernissage to remind you that you really should get round to finishing of typing up an interview.

At Neue Räume Zurich in October 2011 we didin’t just speak to Nikolas Kerl and Jürg Scheidegger

But also with Moritz Schmid and Rebekka Kiesewetter.

And yes the last two interviews have yet to be published. We are working on them. Promise.

Back at Neue Räume, Rebekka told us that it was almost certain that she would be co-organising a “Depot Basel – Zurich Edition”

That is now reality and runs on Friday 17th and Saturday 18th February in the WÄSCHEREI, Kunstverein Zürich Dienerstrasse 70, 8004 Zürich.

For the Zurich Edition, seven Zurich based design studios were asked – if we believe the press release, which given our knowledge of the people behind Depot Basel, we do – what they eat for breakfast, how they live, what smell excites them and what they are working on right now.

Amusingly, for us the answer to all four questions would be exactly the same!

The answers from Livia Lauber, Tido von Oppeln, Milo Keller, Thomas Walde,Christian Kägi, Matteo Gonet and Aleli Leal &  Kaspar Fenkart will be revealed from 8pm on Friday February 17th.

And on the Saturday evening at 8pm cocktails will be served. Cocktails, naturally, designed by the participating designers.
