  • interaction design
  • visual communication.

It’s a celebration of fresh ideas, bold visions, and innovative solutions that are set to shape the future of design.

The Design Festival is not just an exhibition - it's a launchpad. For our students, it's a pivotal moment to share their hard work and creativity, while building networks that will help solidify their career paths. For attendees, it's an opportunity to see tomorrow's design leaders in action.
