Design Indaba 2001
After the international success of Design Indaba 1999, the fourth Design Indaba Conference in 2001 refined its ideals by promoting more discussion of issues and trends relevant to design in the service of communication. The conference exposed its delegates to cutting-edge design trends, opinions and techniques to enhance skills in assessing design and building brands through effective design management.
However, the fourth Design Indaba also realised the need to grow its audiences and share its insights with a general public previously indifferent to good design. To these ends, the quarterly Design Indaba magazine was launched in January 2001, as well as the Design Indaba Trust and Design Indaba Workshop Series.
The Design Indaba Expo takes place from 26th February to 28th February 2010 at the Cape Town International Convention Centre.
Design Indaba Expo is South Africa’s premier showcase of local design in all sectors.
WHY IS THE EXPO UNIQUE?
- it is multi-sectoral, featuring advertising, architecture, craft, decor, film, fashion, graphic design, interior, jewellery, new media, publishing, product design and visual media.
- it showcases the best of local design - original, contemporary and innovative product that is quintessentially South African - no derivatives, and no imports.
- it is curated, not filled. Our advisory panel of the best South African designers, stylists, critics and industry experts, curates the Expo floor and decides who is represented there.
- in addition to encouraging exhibitors to trade directly to the South African public, we also bring out several international buyers to stimulate the export market.
The Expo runs alongside the Design Indaba Conference.
