Clerkenwell is home to more creative businesses and architects per square mile than anywhere else on the planet, making it truly one of the most important design hubs in the world. To celebrate this rich and diverse community, Clerkenwell Design Week has created a showcase of leading UK and international brands and companies presented in a series of showroom events, exhibitions and special installations that take place across the area.

Activities run over the duration of the three-day festival and follow a distinct trail north to south from Spa Fields down to Farringdon.

Integral to the festival are the local resident design showrooms who partner with Clerkenwell Design Week to create a diverse programme of topic-led events including talks, workshops and product launches. Expect to see pop-up showrooms curated by high-end furniture, lighting, kitchen and bathroom brands including Altro, Marazzi and Erco.

Every year Clerkenwell Design Week presents a curated selection of new design projects and street spectacles that are commissioned specially for the festival. Inviting some of the leading thinkers in the industry, these projects aim to push the boundaries of what design means to us today.
