Dezeen partners with V&A Dundee to spotlight Scottish design



Dezeen has teamed up with V&A Dundee to promote Design Champions, a project that aims to provide a platform for emerging Scottish designers.

Each week, V&A Dundee profiles a designer who lives in Scotland on its website and social media channels, helping to increase exposure for the country's design scene.

The program will run until the museum opens in 2018. Individuals are chosen for high quality work that demonstrates social awareness and could help to improve people's lives.

Textile and jewellery designer Kirsty Stevens was the first to be selected back in April for her Making MS Visible project. Diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2017, Stevens referenced her own brain scans to create surface patterns that feature on laser-cut acrylic necklaces, cushions, and silk scarves.
"Using my own MRI scans that were taken in the lead up to my diagnosis, I use the shapes created by harmful lesions as the source material, creating beautiful patterns and designs that turn this negative into an unrecognisable positive," she said.
