Instytut Wzornictwa Przemysłowego

Warszawa

Contrary to what most young people think, design is not a 21st-century discovery – the creation of useful and beautiful things that go on to serve millions has a much longer tradition. Warsaw's Institute of Industrial Design was founded just a few years after the end of the Second World War, ahead of many renowned centres of its kind in the most highly developed countries. Interestingly, the institute not only creates good designs, but also promotes them. For this purpose, it also makes use of a modern audio guide system that guides visitors around the industrial design exhibition traditionally presented at the IWP headquarters in the centre of Warsaw, on Świętojerska Street.
