[Design Indaba 2015] The Emerging Creatives Class of 2015
With a record number of applications for 2015, the curators had the near-impossible task of narrowing 262 applications to just 40 successful candidates.
From 3D fashion printing and community art projects to children's books and contemporary sewing patterns, the class of 2015 shows an exciting and forward-thinking mix of young designers.
These creatives will be showcasing their most innovative work at Design Indaba Expo 2015:
Design Indaba and the Department of Arts and Culture have also selected five up-and-coming designers to be part of their Mentorship Programme, to learn from seasoned professionals.
