»The most important utensil we have to have on stage is a crate of beer« says Boris Kochan when listing what things are needed for the Designers' Battle. Plus a flipchart and a few pens. A bar stool, opened laptops and bar tables are already up there. With Johannes Erler presenting, also appearing on stage will be Mirko Borsche, founder of editorials like »jetzt« and »Neon«; Mario Lombardo, designer of magazines like »spex«; and Lars Harmsen, publisher of »slanted«. All three will be battling it out with one another. There are rules of course.
