Clerkenwell Design Week in London May 24th-26th

   London’s premier celebration of design returns following its hugely successful 2010 inauguration. The three-day festival brings together a varied and vibrant programme of events spanning debates, discussions, presentations, exhibitions, installations, street parties and workshops all in the name of celebrating and embracing design.

   Showcasing the latest product and furniture design innovations from over 50 British and international manufacturers, CDW crucially offers the unrivalled opportunity to see many world launches of new furniture and interior accessories. For many companies it’s also the first opportunity to see products that were launched at the Milan furniture fair in April.

   New to this years event is The House of Detention venue – a subterranean Victorian prison hidden in the heart of Clerkenwell. Not usually open to the public, this unique space will house site-specific installations and innovative product displays for the duration of CDW.

   Once again, CDW will take up ‘residency’ at the Farmiloe Building on St John Street, housing a pop-up design exhibition, featuring cutting edge displays and installations from an array of international designers and organisations from across London and further afield.
   You can register online to gain free entry to the exhibitions and obtain full details of what's on offer here.
