Zlin
Design inherently belongs to Zlin. Design influences the life of every citizen, often unnoticed. We will give it a space to shine and to be understood by people, to be appreciated and to inspire.
Dialog
The 11th edition of the festival will focus on the involvement of users and communities in design processes. Dialogue between the public and experts will open up the possibility of design responding to current challenges or issues. Common themes will be decentralisation, circularity, environmental influence and the key role of communities in design work.
A week of experiences
Zlín will come alive with design day and night. Exhibitions, cultural experiences, installations in modules, lectures, workshops, fashion shows, excursions and unbeatable parties. The atmosphere cannot be described, you have to experience it!
WHAT TO LOOK FORWARD TO DURING ZDW?
What do they say about us?
“The event, connected to Tomáš Bata University, regularly presents the best of the local design scene. During the accompanying programme, you have the chance to listen to the visions of international leaders in the field, which have often not been seen in Prague before. No wonder. The event is produced at an excellent level.”
Veronika Pařízková
DESIGNNNNNNINEWS
“The city of Zlín was originally built on a vision of inclusion, social belonging and sustainability and has been a great inspiration for us. We can’t stop talking about how much of an inspiration Zlin Design Week was for us participants, the students involved, the speakers and the exhibitors from Norway. We are convinced that Zlin Design Week is unique and deserves national recognition and support.”

“Design Week can open your eyes. How interesting design is all around us. What all falls into that box. How advanced design is all over the Czech Republic. And that a student event can be professional and well done.”
