Studiokurbos: “Chinese design is developing, and European design is reacting”

Andreas Kurbos: For this year’s Shanghai auto show we got the same impression as we had two years ago.

I remember the reaction from people at the first show after the pandemic to see what’s happening in China; Europe was really impressed with what they saw on the booths and this year we saw exactly the same thing. It’s nice to see how the Chinese are developing right now and how the European or the Westerns are reacting on this topic.

In the design scene – this little family – everybody knows each other. So it doesn’t matter where on this planet you are, we always meet, we know each other and it’s always good to see other people. For more than 20 years CDN has been featuring many events so you [CDN] are the family. We are all part of the family. And I think it’s important for everybody to take part.
