Temporarily based in the middle of Strijp-s in Eindhoven, this community of designers, architects, artists and other professionals have forged their expertise in circular economy to build a space in the middle of Strijp- S that functions as a creative living lab, workshop, event space and cultural center. Starting with a few containers and a piece of land given, temporarily, by Sint Trudo a few ye

ars back, we designed our city with limited resources and many adventurous partners, such as M.Heezen, ZND Nedicom, Hesta and others, who helped make it possible. Through the use of containers, old windows, second-hand or borrowed materials, this small “city” is built entirely on the principles of Circular Economy – everything we have has been used, re-used and can be easily dismantled. In 2017 our efforts were recognized by Abn-Amro with a Circular Economy Award. At Plug-in-City we design furniture, sculpt wood, curve neon lights, draw buildings and we build machines. We question social design and we constantly explore the concept of circular economy. Plug in City also has an original event space – Plug-in Paviljoen - which is co-owned by the Strijp-S community and is used for organizing concerts, performances, lectures, dinners and community evenings. Now, with the workplace settled, we are bringing our skills together and as a collective work on new challenges. Do not hesitate to contact us for more information or to ask for our expertise.

Met

Kim Steinmann - performance/beeldende kunst
Justin Reinir Croes - performance/beeldende kunst
Beftex - muziek

Deur open: 19.30
Aanvang performances: 20.30

Op vrijdag 14 juni openen we opnieuw de deuren van Plug In City voor de derde editie van ‘Cocktales’!
Cocktales is een kunstmanifestatie en een podium. Een klein, inclusief cultureel festival waar artiest en bezoeker gezien mag worden. We zijn een presentatieruimte waarin plek is voor voor experiment en onderzoek. De artiesten zijn opkomende, diverse q***r talenten uit de regio en daarbuiten.

Deze maand hangen wij onze kleurrijke vlaggen uit en tonen wij met trots wie wij werkelijk zijn en de vrijheid die we hierbij voelen. Maar helaas komen vrijheden vaak niet zonder strijd en gaat aan het vinden een zoektocht vooraf.
Bij deze speciale Pride editie, tevens officieel onderdeel van het programma van Eindhoven Pride, tonen wij werk van kunstenaars die middels hun werk het omarmen van hun identiteit tonen. Ze maken diversiteit bespreekbaar middels het beeldende werk. Met beeldend werk en performances van Kim Steinmann en Justin Reinir Croes.

On Friday 14 June we will once again open our doors for the third edition of ‘Cocktales’!
Cocktales is an art event and stage. A small, inclusive cultural festival where artists and visitors can be seen. We are a presentation space with room for experiment and research. The artists are emerging, diverse q***r talents from the region and beyond.

This month we hang out our colourful flags, proudly show who we truly are and the freedom we feel. But unfortunately, freedoms often do not come without struggle and finding something requires a quest.
In this special Pride edition, which is an official part of the Eindhoven Pride program, we present work by artists who embrace their identity through their work. They make diversity a topic of discussion through their visual work. With visual work and performances by Kim Steinmann and Justin Reinir Croes.
Of course, we will end the evening with a drink and a dance, this time with the help

We would like to introduce you to our ‘new’ plugger Willem who isn’t new to our community though! But now he has his own space at Plug-in City with his company Studio Willem Thissen

As a graphic designer he likes to work hands on with physical media like sign making (vinyl cutting), riso printing (an automated stencil making technique) and in this example silkscreen. He’s currently printing the alphabet of nautical signaling flags on gray screen as a way to practice his silk screen printing skills.

Go follow him on insta!
