Titled "In Between Worlds," Sydney Design Week 2024 invites presenters and attendees to consider how cities can enhance inclusivity and how design can innovate to support sustainable models for living, connection and culture. Throughout the week-long event, festivalgoers will encounter compelling conversations, research, narratives and bodies of work, all reflecting this year's central theme.

Sydney Design Week creative director Keinton Butler said as humans confront a future marked by growing division, creativity and imagination have emerged as critical tools in reshaping our perspectives on how we live. "This year's design week program highlights leading designers and architects who are challenging the status quo, to reimagine more resilient, sustainable and inclusive cities."

Key highlights of the festival include a keynote discussion by Sumayya Vally, architect and artistic director of the inaugural Islamic Arts Biennale, who will speak on designing for belonging. Additionally, architect David Gianotten, the managing partner of the international architecture practice Office for Metropolitan Architecture (OMA), will share insights into the evolving role of architecture.

Moroccan-British artist Hassan Hajjaj will share his approach to image-making while international space architect Melodie Yashar will discuss the ethics of space settlement. Architecture professor and co-founder of the Barcelona-based MAIO Architects Anna Puigjaner will explore the reimagination of domestic spaces and the role of design in social transformation.

Sydney Design Week 2024 will be held at various locations across Sydney from 13-19 September. For the full program, visit the Sydney Design Week website.
