4. 創意逛大街 (Portable GALLERY)
換個設計角度，城市就是最好的藝廊；去年展出就有10萬人次參與的台灣設計展，今年再度與你見面，不管你逛到高雄市立美術館，在高鐵左營站、捷運站、還是在新崛江的餐廳小店咖啡館裡，數十位台灣在地設計師藝術家們的新創作發表，加上Andy Warhol安迪沃荷、芭比娃娃週年展等，讓你在生活中輕鬆與設計一同呼吸；展覽攜出殿堂外就在KDF高雄設計節!
In many ways, the city itself is the best gallery space. Whether you are at the Kaoshiung Museum of Fine Arts, the High Speed Rail Zuoying Station, metro stations around Kaoshiung, or a café at the Hsin-Chueh-Chian shopping area, you can see a diverse range of local designer and artists integrating their work with the urban environment. Along with the Andy Warhol world exhibtion and Barbie's 50th anniversary show, these projects are taking the essence of the festival into the streets of Kaoushiung.
