London Design Week returns

Taking place from 12-17 March, London Design Week at Chelsea Harbour will see designers, architects and tastemakers from the UK and overseas converge in the capital to explore the latest in design.

With 600 brands exhibiting across 120 showrooms, the event will offer a curated programme of workshops, product launches and demonstrations alongside a series of immersive pop-ups, installations, educational tours and a specially designed restaurant.

With a guiding theme of ‘The Science of Design’, London Design Week at Chelsea Harbour promises a programme packed with opportunities to learn the secrets of design’s DNA through the themes of botany, geology, chemistry, zoology and much more, imagined by some of the most creative minds in the industry.

As part of the event’s Conversations in Design series, Sleeper’s Assistant Editor Molly Dolan will chair a panel entitled ‘Psychographics: The Science of Hotel Design’. The discussion, featuring a distinguished line-up of interior designers and hotel operators, will explore the study of personality, attitudes and lifestyles as a tool for design. Additional seminars will see speakers including Tara Bernerd of Tara Bernerd & Partners, Tom Bartlett of Waldo Works, and Peter Gomez of Zoffany explore topics such as design narrative, architecture preservation and sources of inspiration.
