Along the halls of the most prestigious Arts and Design schools in Europe, students arm themselves with a little more than a schedule and a drop of talent. The educational model which guides their vocation is based on a few key-elements: curiosity, flexibility, discipline, and as much thinking outside the box as possible. It is common practice for these students to take part in the most important design fairs and exhibitions, such as Milan's Salone del Mobile, and connect to the wider design phenomena. Their portofolios meet the highest professional requirements, while their diplomas alone stand as relevant reason for joining some of the industry’s most important studios and companies. Where does the next generation of Romanian designers and artists position itself compared to these international standards, and what is the extent to which our own educational system can take inspiration from these western models, with the resources it disposes of? We find out the answers to all these questions from representatives of both our schools and our local creative industries.
