DSG thus works closely with leading industry experts to inform\, intrigue\, and inspire all participants at this year’s SDW. Design Futures will explore the future of design through Singapore’s forward-looking lens\, aiming to prototype a better future for us all. ‘Upholding this pillar’ is SDW’s flagship Design Futures Forum\, which returns with an expanded format that spans two days. \nDesign Futures Forum at Singapore Design Week 2024\nKeynote speaker and “godmother of the metaverse” Cathy Hackl (CEO\, Spatial Dynamics) will join segment curators\, Singapore-based venture capitalist Debra Langley(Venture Partner\, LyraVentures)\, Aric Chen (General and Artistic Director\, Het Nieuwe Instituut)\, and DesignSingaporeCouncil’s Tamsin Greulich-Smith (Director\, School of X) to usher in insights from fellow thought leaders on design’s critical role in areas of Emerging Technology\, Sustainability and Care. Through thought-provoking presentations\, engaging panel discussions\, and interactive hands-on sessions\, the role of design and designers in the face of rapidly advancing technologies will be thoroughly examined\, encouraging participants to enact change in their own spheres of influence after that. Design Marketplace will unite lifestyle trends from around the world with the fast-growing design community of the Southeast Asia region.  \nDiscover Milan Design Week 2024 \n \nFIND–Design Fair Asia\, a design trade fair\, presents its third edition at Marina Bay Sands on 26 to 28 September 2024. \nEMERGE@FIND\, DSG’s talent showcase dedicated to Southeast Asian contemporary design\, curated by Suzy Annetta of Design Anthology\, returns with the theme of ‘These Precious Things.’ Over 50 emerging and established designers from Indonesia\, Malaysia\, the Philippines\, Singapore\, Thailand\, and Vietnam will present new works that explore internal and external value ideas.

Tan’s curatorial vision for the People of Design Showcase Series will see commissioned designers and studios reimagine everyday activities – eating\, sleeping\, reading\, commuting\, and more – through a series of specially created site-specific\, experiential installations shaped to offer fresh perspectives across multiple venues.  \nDiscover the Toronto Design Festival \n \nAmong these will be an installation envisioned by China-based food design studio\, Atelier Fang\, which examines food design through the lens of seeds at the festival hub National Design Centre\, with an accompanying dining experience at TipoPasta Barat Stamford Arts Centre.  \nR for Repair\nR for Repair will also return in a pre-war bungalow at 42 Waterloo Street. The exhibition\, which showcases donated personal objects being mended creatively by designers\, was first presented locally by DSG and Hans Tan in 2021\, then at London’s Victoria and Albert Museum in 2022. This new iteration\, Repair+\, focuses on mending the mind and spirit through donated objects collected in collaboration with the Yishun Health Singapore healthcare network. \nMarina Design District at Singapore Design Week 2024\nThis year\, the expanded Marina Design District will feature Marina Central for the first time\, alongside the iconic Marina Bay area. Helming curatorial duties at Marina Central is Nathan Yong\, founder of the eponymous multidisciplinary studio.

It’s a series of activations that merges communities’ collective spirit with the future-thinking vision of Singaporean design. \nKey highlights include the Design Pavilion at Millenia Walk\, which will house a curated exhibition\, talks\, retail experiences\, and workshops on sustainability and innovation. Mooncycle is a pair of device-charging swings inspired by the concept of Moon Gates found in Chinese gardens\, while Kinetics Energy Play invites visitors to power up a series of human-sized wheels and watch movement turn to light. \nDesign District: Orchard Road\nOver at Orchard Road\, visitors can look forward to Re-Route: Orchard (RR:OR)\, curated by the Singapore-based interdisciplinary group PLUS Collaboratives. Taking the theme of “Be HereNow\,” it brings an investigative design lens to enhance the visitor experience of Singapore’s famed shopping belt. \nWith a forward-looking perspective\, RR:OR showcases the role of design in the adaptation and transformation of place\, celebrating its transformative capacity in influencing and shaping a sense of community\, culture\, and history.

SUMMARY:Pietrasanta Design Week-end 2024
DESCRIPTION:The third edition of Pietrasanta Design Week-end runs in Pietrasanta\, Tuscany\, from September 26 to 29\, 2024.  \nThe 2024 edition of Pietrasanta Design Week-end\, an initiative founded by Paola Silva Coronel\, takes place over three days\, with a rich program of exhibitions\, installations and talks.  \nThe common thread of this edition is the hallmark. That is\, an invitation to brands and designers to show and tell themselves through their cultural background\, emphasizing the difference that distinguishes artistic production from industrial production. \nSpeaking of industrial production and design\, an unprecedented duo\, Giulio Cappellini and Giulio Iacchetti\, arrives at the Church of Saint Augustine to stage the Versilia of all time. “Abitiamo alla marinara (We live seafaring-style)” tells the design of yesterday and today through four islands + 1 dedicated to life on the beach\, from relaxation to sports\, food\, and play. The +1 island is dedicated to a new outdoor furniture collection\, designed by Giulio Iacchetti for Ezio Foppa Pedretti and presented here exclusively.  \nDiscover Courmayeur Design Week-end \nPietrasanta Design Week-end 2024. Photo Giacomo Buzio\, courtesy Pietrasanta Design Week-end \nDesign in Tuscany\nBetween art and design\, two of the contents on display inside the Cloister unfold. The Sala dei Putti hosts a photography exhibition curated by Alberto Mattia Martini with shots by max&douglas\, whose title is “Inside Artist.” The collection of artists’ portraits premiers in Pietrasanta. In the Sala del Capitolo\, a painter\, Pilar Saltini\, signs canvases that become the setting for an installation of Kartell products\, curated by FABRIC. In a dialogue between art and design\, the visitor’s gaze travels into the infinite space of the polychrome canvases\, starting from the shapes and colors typical of the Kartell universe. \nPietrasanta Design Week-end 2023 \nArchitecture and design in magical Versilia\nIn the Chiostro di Sant’Agostino (Cloister of St. Augustine)\, between the arcade and the gardens\, is an installation by GBPA Architects for Medit\, with lamps by Dixpari. In Duomo Square\, a green installation by Silvia Ghirelli and Giuseppe Tortato Architetti for Kindof and VilleGiardini magazine is back. \nAlso outside the Complex\, in the magical quadrilateral of the Giardino della Lumaca (Snail Garden)\, 967Arch rethinks the green space by staging an open-air lounge signed FIM/CORO\, with the green touch of Silvia Ghirelli\, a land artist who already signed one of the most appreciated installations last year. \nDiscover Courmayeur Design Week-end 2024 \nPietrasanta Design Week-end 2024. Photo Giacomo Buzio\, courtesy Pietrasanta Design Week-end \nDesign by the beach in Forte dei Marmi\nFrom the Apuan Alps\, the gaze and thoughts run to the sea\, where Design Week-end pushes on for the first time\, animating one of Forte dei Marmi’s historic beach resorts. Here again\, outdoor beach furniture finds its natural habitat\, inviting the Design Week-end audience to discover the tradition of Versilia and the anticipation of the next stage. Here\, in fact\, is a glimpse of CourmaBeach\, the beach on the snow\, which was a success in February in Courmayeur.  \nOn the long and wonderful beach\, one of the most goliardic moments of this new edition will be the tournament of marbles\, customized with the faces of the designers\, instead of the historical cyclists. Studio Giuseppe Tortato Architetti joins the technological skills of WIP Work in Progress to create jumps and parabolics. There is also no shortage of special effects with augmented reality\, thanks to the skill and imagination of DOS Design Open Spaces. Like every year and every edition\, the sports/goliardic fractions are always captained by Cardex\, the leading partner again on this occasion\, with Sedus. \nDiscover Bangkok Design Week 2024 \nPietrasanta Design Week-end 2024. Photo Giacomo Buzio\, courtesy Pietrasanta Design Week-end \nBetween Friday and Saturday\, there is also the second edition of sailingCAD\, the sailing regatta for architects and designers\, which this year opts for the match-race mode\, with direct elimination trials.  \nThe agenda also consists of several talks\, scheduled from Friday to Sunday\, with two appointments daily\, one in the morning and one in the afternoon.  \nA high value design program\nADI – Associazione per il Disegno Industriale (Industrial Design Association) and Altagamma\, with their patronage\, confirm the high value of the content and program of this small event\, which year after year is establishing itself among the events with a higher following. \n“The year 2024 closes at its best\, bringing three editions to a close “-the comment of Paola Coronel\, creator\, and organizer of the event-” For the first time we have put on the calendar three appointments bringing design from north to south\, from Valle d’Aosta to Puglia\, to Tuscany.
