We are Werkschau. Graduate Show at Pforzheim University School of Design 2026

Our school DesignPF thrives on the people who shape it—on everyone who thinks, designs, discards, starts over, and reimagines design every day. Behind each individual piece of work is a community that supports us all – and we want to celebrate that!

On February 6 & 7, 2026, our doors will be wide open: on display will be projects from six bachelor's degree programs, four master's programs, Katapult, interdisciplinary projects, art, and theory. You can attend various programs, guided tours and a variety of food and drinks – and above all, good company!
