STORE Schools & Projects Foundation

opened a workshop and store in Rotterdam in 2021, called STORE STORE, where young people can take design and manufacturing lessons. In these free Design Clubs, young people work together with designers and learn to design products. These products are then sold in the store, with the young people receiving royalties for their design. The rest of the proceeds from the store flow back into the educational program.

In this project, the Design Club is supervised by designer Lex Pott ( https://www.lexpott.nl/ ). The young people learn to make candles, and molds are also made from a number of these candles so that a small production can be started. For this they use silicone and other products from Siliconesandmore.com.
