Conferences, exhibitions, workshops, parties. Students, inspiring personalities—everyone who loves the world of design. The eighth edition of Zlin Design Week will take place from 6 to 13 May 2022.

This is a huge opportunity and responsibility, therefore, we want to be a platform where we can openly discuss the possibilities and support those who can contribute to this change,” said Jitka Smolíková, the festival’s director.
