About
Making its debut during London Design Festival 2021, Design London (22nd - 25th September 2021) will showcase a curated selection of cutting-edge furniture, lighting and contract interiors brands as well as collaborations with renowned and emerging designers.
Situated alongside a dynamic new Design District on Greenwich Peninsula, the inaugural Design London will feature a multitude of international brands, including esteemed Italian brands Ethimo Design; Penta and Artemide, Danish brand Fritz Hansen, as well as London-based industrial label Buster + Punch.
Defined by its modern architectural form, the venue provides a striking blank canvas for showcasing the very best in contemporary design, while functional and outdoor spaves provide a means for large-scale creative expression. Positioned on the banks of the River Thames, it offers uninterrupted views across Canary Wharf and is directly accessible by tube, road, river, air and cable car.
Highlights include “Discussions at Design London,” which will be opened by British-Nigerian artist Yinka Ilori. He will welcome guests through a kaleidoscopic tunnel of colour, inviting them to take a seat in his joyfully-designed auditorium, Transparency in shades of colour. The line-up of speakers include Morag Myerscough, Eley Kishimoto, and Pearson Lloyd.
