Berlin Design Week

Every spring, BERLIN DESIGN WEEK sheds light on the local design scene and invites international players to promote interdisciplinary and transnational exchange.

In this sense, this year‘s theme, „Resilience“, focuses more consistently than before on design as an impulse-giving force for forward-looking changes, driving agility, stability, sustainability, and innovation potential. As usual, events such as exhibitions, presentations, talks, workshops, and networking events form the core of the festival and offer insights into a broad spectrum of current design projects.

In collaboration with our partners & participants, we develop different formats such as exhibitions, talks, panels, presentations, workshops, net-working events, elevator pitches, screenings, and round tables, which can take place simultaneously over ten days at diffe¬rent locations around Berlin.

We believe that design will play a key role in allowing us to master the enormous challenges of our time. Our aim is to show how designers from around the world are driving societal change and promoting economic innovation through their work.

As a melting pot for creativity, design and technology, Berlin attracts designers*, artists* and resear¬chers worldwide. With its rich history and cultural diversity, the city provides an ideal backdrop for bre¬aking the boundaries of conventional design practices. BERLIN DESIGN WEEK offers an opportunity to explore the different fields of design that flourish in Berlin and thus discover the city in a new way.
