The creative network
dasauge.co.uk is the UK sibling of acclaimed design directory dasauge, one of the most popular design portals on the net. dasauge has been around since 1997 and over the years has brought together an unparalleled network of creative people – in terms of sheer number and quality of contacts alike. So if you rely on good and sustainable contacts in the creative industry, you’ve come to the right place – because dasauge is where creative heads meet.
For the non German speakers among you, “das Auge” (pronounced something along the lines of “dus owgger”) literally means “the eye”, suggesting both the visual and design emphasis of the site and conceivably the skill of keeping an eye on the latest developments in the creative world.
