Vienna Design Week

VIENNA DESIGN WEEK is Austria's most important multidisciplinary and curated design festival. Beyond the preoccupation with the design of products, it poses the question of what role the work of designers* plays for coexistence in the city and worldwide. Since 2007, VIENNA DESIGN WEEK has been a defining part of Vienna's design landscape. Organized by an independent association, the festival comprises around 200 events and welcomes 40,000 visitors each year.

How can design contribute to both socially and ecologically sustainable solutions? How can it be critical and connect us in meaningful ways to the objects, spaces and services we need? Answers to questions like these are sought by VIENNA DESIGN WEEK on ten late summer days with a variety of events in the fields of product, graphic and industrial design, architecture and crafts, but also social design and with digital as well as experimental approaches.
