Following the success of the inaugural Clerkenwell Open 2021, the showroom trail event will return this 7-8th September with a seminar and workshop programme in response to a demand for knowledge and information sharing.

Spread over two days, in up to 15 Clerkenwell showrooms, visitors can expect a series of informative and knowledge-based seminars and workshops bringing together leading figures from workplace and hospitality design to examine the trends and key issues affecting the commercial interiors industry.

“The seminar programme at the first Clerkenwell Open proved to be of exceptional quality and extremely popular with the visitors,” says Jeremy Stein MD, BCFA (British Contract Furnishing Association). “This second Clerkenwell OPEN builds on this with a greatly expanded seminar and workshop programme, which brings together the leading figures from workplace and hospitality design to examine the trends and key issues affecting our industry. The mission of the Clerkenwell Open continues to be to inspire and energise the people and businesses in our sector and to ensure that the showrooms in Clerkenwell continue to flourish.”

The team aims to provide a fresh, industry led event that offers new opportunities for architects, designers, specifiers, dealers and end users to explore their abilities, mingle with like-minds and share industry knowledge and expertise.

“The success of last year’s Clerkenwell Open prompted us to make this into an annual knowledge sharing event, to celebrate our Work, our People and the Culture of the workplace design industry,” explains Harsha Kotak Founder, WOD (Women in Office Design). “The aim is to engage designers, manufacturers and the wider audience of the industry through thought-provoking talks, workshops and discussions. The focus of our seminars will be on the key elements of ‘progress’ and ‘moving forward’ and therefore our core theme for CO this year is Sustainability and the Future of workplace design.”
