In this NRW fashion edition of the Heimatdesign magazine – issue no. 17 – we take you on a journey to visit people from North Rhine-Westphalia who design fashion, often based on sustainable concepts, and we give a brief insight into the amazing opportunities offered by the fashion schools in the region. Moreover, we address different approaches of crafting shoes as well as the commitment of making the sector visible through exciting formats. In statements, short essays and interviews we learn what spurs the designers, where they get their inspiration or go to relax. Fashion breaks the ground and will be followed by two more issues that report on the brilliant interior and communication designers in the region.

Hope to see you!
