DDW is different from other design events, because it concentrates on the designs of the future. Although during the event every imaginable discipline and aspect of design is on offer, the emphasis is on experiment, innovation and cross-overs. Exceptional attention each year goes to work and development of young talent.

The 14th DDW promises to be a programme packed with design, technology and innovation under the banner ‘What if…’. For nine whole days there will be presentations in 80 locations by 2400 designers. A DDW ticket offers unlimited access to a number of exceptional locations, museum ticket discounts and free entry to live concerts. All other locations are free, unless stated otherwise in the programme.

Martijn Paulen, DDW director: "Posing the right questions is the motor for the imagination. Designers think about how we will live and live together in the future. They dare to question everything, dream of a different answer and shape it. This is how they lay the basis for the innovations of the future."
