Design verbindet – Gegenwart und Zukunft: Designer*innen arbeiten an aktuellen Aufgabenstellungen, entwickeln Lösungen für unternehmerische oder gesellschaftliche Probleme und entwerfen nachhaltige Modelle für morgen.

Meaningful work requires time for playfulness – how did the official print magazine for munich creative business week 2026 come to life?

The iconic motto pages were designed by the studio – André Gröger and Susanne Kehrer – using a fully analog, playful approach: handcrafted sets made of laser-cut, hand-painted MDF panels, translating the visual language of mcbw 2026 into tangible, spatial objects.

It turned out beautifully. What do you think?

Label, agency, cultural platform—or all of the above?

Public Possession defies categorisation, embracing openness, experimentation, �and spatial flexibility as a creative principle in Munich’s cultural landscape.

Moving fluidly between clubs, museums, and public spaces, Public Possession treats openness not as a strategy, but as a way of working—one that privileges experimentation, exchange, and collective experience over fixed identities.
