Juli Gudehus collects. Some of her works have already emerged from this. She started her loose-leaf collection of toilet paper from all over the world, comprising over 1,000 copies, in order to be able to illustrate a calendar for the year 00. While the world is still waiting for it, July finally opened its treasure chest at the beginning of the Corona period - on the occasion of the associated run on this supposedly so mundane consumer item. In her lecture, she strolls with us through a design area that has not yet been dealt with at any university.
