As one of the best attended and comprehensive seminar programmes in Asia, Kohler · Design Shanghai Design Forum brings together the world’s most pioneering minds, making it a unique platform for networking with Asia’s most influential design professionals. Over four days at the fair, the design forum will present inspiring and diverse content from over 100 design industry leaders and influencers.
Design Shanghai’s 10th anniversary edition comes at a time in the planet’s history such as we have never seen; a confluence, a conjunction of forces. As we emerge from the global trauma of the pandemic, new behaviours either fade away or are reinforced and attitudes to business and creativity emerge. The deeper impact is on our understanding of health and wellbeing, our ability to apply it to the design of our interiors, products, buildings and environment – but, most importantly – to apply it to ourselves.
