On Friday, 30 January 2026, from 12:00 to 8:00 pm, and Saturday, 31 January 2026, from 12:00 to 6:00 pm, the Peter Behrens School of Arts at the University of Applied Sciences Düsseldorf cordially invites visitors to the Winter Werkschau 25/26.

More than 250 graduates from the Bachelor’s and Master’s degree programmes in Architecture/Interior Architecture, Civic Design, Exhibition Design, Interior Architecture, Communication Design, New Craft Object Design, and Retail Design will present their graduation projects.

From the Small to the Large

In January, Düsseldorf becomes colourful: confetti serves as a symbol of joy and celebration and lends the Winter Werkschau 25/26 its distinctive character. Each degree programme is assigned its own confetti shape and colour, symbolising both the individuality of the final projects and the diversity of the two faculties, Architecture and Design. Together, these elements form a greater whole—the image of the Peter Behrens School of Arts at the University of Applied Sciences Düsseldorf: diverse, bold, and vibrant.

From this concept emerges a coherent design system that is reflected in the wayfinding, the exhibition design, and the visual identity. Static two- and three-dimensional applications are complemented by animations and digital formats. The deliberate interplay between macro and micro perspectives—from close-up views of individual works to the perception of the exhibition as a whole—transforms the exhibition into a lively and dynamic experience.

A particular highlight is the print concept, which replaces the classic CMYK colour spectrum with neon pink (Pantone 806 C) and neon yellow (Pantone 803 C), thereby significantly enhancing the visual impact.
