The event reflects the dynamism, ingenuity and passion for design, with plenty to offer whether you are a fan of classic contemporary, cutting-edge, or just keen to seek out the best of the best.

Compiled of a who’s who of the international design scene, 500 brands at 90 Design Centre showrooms will debut new ranges. The event aims to offer a comprehensive overview of the latest fabrics, furniture, wallcoverings, lighting, accessories, floorcoverings, outdoor living and more.

Situated in the heart of London, attendees travel from both home and overseas. A packed programme features ‘Conversations in Design’ with global names including Martyn Lawrence-Bullard, Sophie Conran, Emma Bridgewater, Jay Jeffers, Judith Wilson, Daniel Hopwood, Rory Dobner, Ptolemy Mann and Bunny Turner. There is also a professional practice session on how to make the best of social media. International showrooms open their doors to host engaging talks, workshops, presentations and meet-the-designer sessions with some of the most creative minds in the industry.

London Design Week 2014 will also include courtesy transport, a show-stopping restaurant, specially commissioned installations, book signings and a design blog on the pieces and people making waves this year.
