Reception: Nice to meet you!

​‘Nice to meet you!’ is a group exhibition proudly presented by design collective, Table, bringing together emerging designers to reflect on the ‘act of a greeting’. The work will explore how design can welcome and invite people in by creating a sense of belonging, with work spanning from physical objects and digital interactive projects. 

​As the first act of connection, we greet through exchanges of language, gestures, glances, and tone. We greet through symbols: a card, a gift, a sign at the door. Each greeting, however simple, is a quiet affirmation: I see you, and you are welcome here. 

​Curated primarily through an open submission call, we are foregrounding new perspectives and aim to highlight the many ways design can extend invitations and build shared experiences. 

​In addition to the exhibition, there will be a panel talk [https://luma.com/l47hz4f9] reflecting on the ideas presented, carrying the spirit of greeting forward into the wider design community.

​This event is organized by Table, in collaboration with Gagné Contemporary. We look forward to meeting you!
