Youth, a Manchester-based design studio, presents No Age – an open exhibition at 184 Deansgate exploring the value of collaboration and designing for culture not demographic.

Youth founders Liam McGroarty & Oliver Collinge believe design in Manchester is being driven by numbers and demographics rather than cultures and lifestyles, which should define its future as a city. The exhibition will communicate this narrative and will feature a talks programme with some of Manchester’s most progressive creatives.
