About
Loudform started as an argument in a print shop, and got out of hand.

Why a steelworks
Cities like this one were built by people who made loud, heavy, useful things. We think design still has something to learn from them. So we fill their old buildings with people who make things now, and ask them to show their working.
There are no sponsors on stage, no keynote slots for sale and no lanyards. There are three rooms, a lot of noise and a canteen where the best conversations happen.

So far
A print shop, sixty people and one borrowed PA.
Moved to the Pattern Store. The neighbours complained, then came along.
Took over the whole site and added the Rolling Shed workshops.
Sold out in nine days and finally fixed the roof.
