Getting Lost is finding the new and unexpected.
Getting Lost is self-reflection, self-discovery, self-awareness.
Getting Lost is facing the inner struggle, moving between moments of confusion and moments of light.

Getting Lost, in our design experience, is absolute freedom. Losing one’s self is a luxury that all can afford, but few choose to indulge. It is a gift that must be handled with care and with conscience. All of our senses are engaged as we wander down the unexpected, through the unfamiliar, to new places and experiences where our perceptions are challenged and our horizons expanded. It is the directionless journey that leads to strange and beautiful discoveries.

Based on the theme of MLY’s latest collection, we have asked 12 designers to explore their own notion of Getting Lost. Each designer has an individual way of sharing and expressing this freedom. The results are a fascinating and diverse collection of works that explore new possibilities in materials, techniques, and compositions.

We are delighted to invite you to follow your senses through this unique and exciting collection, on exhibition during Dutch Design Week.
