A new neighbourhood creating a base for sustainable production

Design City Kolding creates the future of business and the business of the future. Design City Kolding will be a completely new neighbourhood, which focuses on sustainability, new forms of cooperation and innovation through design.

 
Design City Kolding will create a new, vibrant neighbourhood in Kolding, in the centre of Denmark, where businesses, institutions and organisations can develop side-by-side with residents in the area. Shops, restaurants and cosy urban space will contribute to the varied and high quality of life in the neighbourhood.

Sustainable production

If you as a company, private person or organisation have a sustainable approach to things, Design City Kolding is the right place for you. It is our ambition – step-by-step – to create a neighbourhood which actively and positively contributes with a focus on sustainable production for both current and future generations. 

A multi-disciplinary environment

In Design City Kolding, we focus on new ways of working in a multi-disciplinary environment which is not afraid of change. Cooperation across organisations and disciplines is part of creating a vibrant and growing neighbourhood.

Design City Kolding supports a broad focus on design, both in Kolding and in the Southern Denmark Region. When we at Design City Kolding think design, it should be understood in broad terms. We support Design Thinking, which is a method of practical and creative problem-solving. The goal is to improve future results.

Analysis shows that Danish companies which utilise design experience 20% greater growth and a higher export share than companies which do not utilise design.

A focus on sustainability, new forms of cooperation and innovation through design is therefore common sense.
