Exhibition: Sports – Friends, Pleasure and Gears

Experimental product concepts for sports, outdoor, and exercise gear by Aalto University design students. Pop-up exhibition in TAHTO's Hall of Heroes. Blood, sweat, and tears – this expression is often associated with the demanding nature of sports. But what if the core qualities of sports were actually togetherness, enjoyment, and the refined technology and innovation behind the equipment? Master’s students in Product and Form course, took this idea as their inspiration and developed bold product concepts rooted in communal making, technical insight, and the joy that movement and sports can bring.
