LONDON DESIGN FESTIVAL

Design London (22-25 September 2021) made its debut at LDF21 with 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 featured a multitude of international brands, including esteemed Italian brands Ethimo Design; Penta and Artemide, Danish brand Fritz Hansen, as well as bespoke sculptural lighting company Cameron Design House who revealed new contemporary brand Empty State. 

Defined by its modern architectural form, the venue provided a striking blank canvas for showcasing the very best in contemporary design, while functional and outdoor spaces 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 included “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 includes Henry Holland, Eley Kishimoto, and Pearson Lloyd.
