HELLO FUTURE

Double Decker launched Hello Future – the world’s first global sketchbook archive – with an engaging two-day festival featuring exhibitions, workshops and mentoring sessions. In partnership with the Onassis Cultural Centre, the project established the first-ever sketchbook archive hosted by a cultural institution.

Working with leading art and design schools including Parsons School of Design and Yale University School of Art in the United States and ECAL in Switzerland, Double Decker reviewed 1,100 portfolios to select 200 exceptional artists from 30 countries. Each artist was given a sketchbook to fill with their work, contributing to the ongoing International Talent Archive.

While the initiative showcased emerging artistic talents, it also fostered a global creative community. The festival transformed the cultural centre into a vibrant hub of innovation, celebrating the energy and vision of young artists through a rich program of events and activities.
