Design Friends is a Luxembourg-based non-profit association gathering together people who are interested in design and its creation.

Since our inception in 2009, we have produced more than 75 design talks, and for each of them, we published a monographic catalogue. Once a year, we organise or co-organise a screening night.

Brave new light-heartedness

Lottermann and Fuentes

Photography Design

Nada Lottermann and Vanessa Fuentes grew up together. They developed a passion early on for working creatively together in a multitude of different disciplines. Fashion, art and photography define the focus points of their work – always to create an expression of the feeling of the moment. Both photographers develop a freedom on their projects which they use to give the subject an easy-going strength. Shoots are transformed into friendly and often very special encounters – on both sides of the camera. From the kernel of an idea, through its planning and finally implementation, the two of them realise independent film and photo productions with a real sense of style, without losing sight of the whole.
