Fifty hidden design hotspots in Daejeon have been featured in the December 2025 issue of the SRT Magazine, bringing them to national attention.


The Daejeon Design Hotspot project, run by the Daejeon Design Promotion Agency, was introduced nationwide through the December 2025 issue of SRT Magazine. The coverage especially focused on 15 newly selected locations this year, exploring the value and appeal of hidden design within the city from multiple perspectives.


The new selections for 2025 were finalized based on suggestions from citizens and designers, categorized into three themes: "Space of Inspiration," "Space of Experience," and "Space of Time."

In particular, this year's selected spaces are centered around local design hubs where creators are continuously active, drawing attention to Daejeon's unique spatial identity and regional characteristics.


The SRT Magazine provides detailed introductions to the 15 new hotspots, including photographs, space descriptions, and operational information, allowing SRT passengers to naturally discover Daejeon's design ecosystem.


Additionally, a QR code linking to the Daejeon Design Hotspot Storybook (published by the Daejeon Design Promotion Agency) and the official website has been included, making it easy for readers to access content that could not be fully covered in print.


The storybook features in-depth content such as the background stories of each space, interviews with representatives, and a photo archive, offering a deeper look into the narratives built by Daejeon's local creators and spaces.
