The following episode „Design Smithy – Designing regional cultural identities“ brings together representatives of the Lower Austrian town Waidhofen an der Ybbs and the wellknown finnish village Fiskars, which seem to be twin cities by heart. Together they discuss similarities of the strong regional identity and the cultural development both areas are experiencing.
With: Werner Krammer (Mayor of Waidhofen an der Ybbs), Antrei Hartikainen (Designer from Fiskars), Laura Hirvi (Finnland-Institute in Germany), Theresia Hauenfels (Art historian, Donau-Universität Krems, center for museum collections management), Johanna Vuorio (Nikari)
