Design Week South Africa, is a curated calendar of events and immersive experiences that showcase the future of South African design through knowledge-sharing, inclusivity and support.
Our mission is to create South Africa’s leading design platform. A platform that celebrates design as an expression of creative thinking and making, creates connections, jumpstarts collaborations, and cultivates the next generation of creative leaders.
We’re aiming to boost the local creative economy with an approach that is industry-led and increases the public’s knowledge, awareness, and appreciation of design while generating and collecting open-source data around local design sectors.
