Time Well Spent
Beckmans College of Design, Graduation Show 2021, May 20th–25th
Beckmans College of Design’s annual graduation show opens on May 20th.
The three graduating classes in Fashion, Product Design, and Visual Communication have worked to explore, challenge and influence a variety of areas within design. In May, they will present their graduation projects both digitally and in an exhibition at the college.
The exhibition concept raises questions about the importance of time within design, especially during times like these. The students have all experienced how time affects a project - how infinite it feels at the start and how scarce it is at the end. Still, somehow, you reach your goal.
Beckmans’ Graduation Exhibition 2021 is called “Time Well Spent”, meaning three years at Beckmans is time well spent.
The identity won silver in Resumé’s award “Design of the month”.

Wasting Time – Episode 01︎︎︎
Layers upon layers. Minutes add to minutes. Hours to hours. Days to days. Entities to eternities. And so it goes on. A continued progress of existence. Gone in an instant. The escape is the present.
Saving Time – Episode 02︎︎︎
A raging current. Multiplying into millions. Almost invisible. Always invincible. What do you do when things pile up? Is it possible to hold on forever? What happens if you don’t? If you just stop.
Time Well Spent – Episode 03︎︎︎
Minutes washing over you like waves. Aware of every breath. A sudden feeling of contentment to have completed something. Time is yours. Time is ours. Our time is now.
