Now in its 10th year, Clerkenwell Design Week is a showcase event in an east-central district of London which has become a leading cluster of creative businesses. With over 100 locally-based showrooms, design practices and studios taking part this year, international brands exhibiting in historic buildings and pop-up spaces, and nearly 400 talks, workshops, presentations and round-table discussions, it provides plenty of talking points. While the focus is on commercial interiors, workspaces and furniture design, alongside the latest product launches comes a strong sense of trends and themes with a cross-sector impact – and the wider concerns the design world in general is facing.
