Droog > Styling

In the book ‘Renny Ramakers: Rethinking Design – Curator of Change’, author Aaron Betsky shows how Ramakers has emphasized the mix of high and low cultures, the reuse of images, the importance of wit, the necessity of user participation, the elegance of the undressed object and the possibilities of design as a catalyst for social change. It surveys the work Ramakers has done since 1980 as the author of countless articles and books on design, as the promotor of Droog, as project director and curator, and as thinker.

His pioneering vision was to make one’s own paradise with what one encounters, as Robinson Crusoë did on his island.
