The program for the second Perth Design Week (PDW) has been announced. The annual public festival showcases good design and celebrates the local design community and its leaders.

The 2024 program comprises more than 80 events, including exhibitions, films, talks and experiences.

Organizers for Perth design week have also announced a new collaboration with global architecture practice OMA and Italian furniture brand Unifor who have created a bespoke installation for Cathedral Square titled "Principles Square."

The installation will host a public screening of Point of Origin - a film that documents the OMA founder Rem Koolhaas's process designing a house on an impossibly steep and narrow plot of land in Austria.

"Many of the successful Design Weeks around the world attract and engage not only local but international audiences, we are aiming high. PDW is an impactful event for Perth, allowing the city to proudly present and showcase our local design talent and their work," said co-creators of Perth Design Week, architect Sandy Anghie and designer David Smith.

"Significantly, PDW was chosen as the first location after Milan, to host the highly innovative, interactive and inclusive installation."

Other highlights of the festival include WA Homes - S, M, L exhibition, which explores a range of housing types in Western Australia, from small houses, medium-density developments, and multi-unit apartment blocks.
