The Taste of Change encompasses the change of habits, lifestyles, food consumption, conservation, production and distribution, bio- and cultural diversity.
Through tools and ingredients we use on a daily basis to feed ourselves, today’s design questions and provides objects, services and systems which foster innovation.
