Copenhagen Design Week 2009

The first international design week in Copenhagen

For more than a week the whole of Copenhagen will buzz with design activities and events when the first international Copenhagen Design Week is launched from the 27 August – 6 September 2009.

Design Week presents design that matters - ideas, concepts, products and services that will come to play an important role in your professional and private life. In 2009, Design Week focuses on design that matters for society and the environment, all presented through numerous exhibitions, seminars, debates that together demonstrate the positive role for design to inspire companies and individuals. In this way, Design Week is a ‘designer prelude’ to the UN Climate Conference (COP15) that takes place in Copenhagen in December.

Design week is developed and arranged by the Danish Design Center in cooperation with many national and international partners including: INDEX:, CODE09, Danish Architecture Centre, Danish Crafts and the Copenhagen Furniture Fair.
