15 Years of Beyond Tellerrand in Düsseldorf

The Düsseldorf edition of beyond tellerrand 2026 positions itself where the event has been rooted for over 15 years: between design and technology, analogue craft and digital presence. A program that doesn’t separate disciplines, but deliberately brings them together.

A majority of the line-up has already been announced, including book designer Chip Kidd, film and prop designer Annie Atkins, interface designer Oliver Reichenstein, and Bramus Van Damme from Google’s Chrome team. The line-up is further complemented by voices such as type designer Kimya Gandhi, Signalnoise founder James White, web audio pioneer André Michelle, software designer Lauren Celenza, and politically engaged designer James Victore.

The spectrum ranges from editorial design and film-related work to digital product development, as well as code, sound, and cultural discourse.

With much of the program already confirmed, it becomes clear that beyond tellerrand Düsseldorf 2026 is less a traditional design or tech event, and more a platform for diverse perspectives and disciplines—situated somewhere between book, film, and digital space.
