Design China Beijing returns this September for a four-day event, featuring international design names and local design talent, bringing together the industry's largest concentration of architectural and design thought leaders to share ideas and exchange global perspectives, according to organisers. 

Design China Beijing, 2020.

Taking place from 24th to 27th September 2021 as part of the Beijing International Design Week, the fourth edition of Design China Beijing will focus on the theme of "Nature, Nurture and Sustainable Beauty" to be expressed through sustainable design materials and industrial research.

As part of the Design Shanghai portfolio, which now covers three key cultural and commercial hubs in China, Design China Beijing will be followed by Design Shenzhen,  launching for the first time from 9th to12th December 2021. 

Organisers expect these events in the international design landscape further strengthen China's position as the world’s biggest design market. With innovative projects being developed across Beijing and Shanghai, led by the world’s key players in design and architecture, further establishes China’s significance to the global design community. 

A programme of  talks by some 30 design icons and global thought leaders, including Amanda Levete, Morag Myerscough, Teresa van Dongen, Satyendra Pakhalé, Dayong Sun and Shanshan Qi, to name but a few, will form highlights of Design China Beijing.

Set across 12,000² metres of the National Agricultural Exhibition Centre, one of the largest exhibition centres in Beijing, the event exhibits over 100 designers including some of China’s most exciting brands, both established and emerging, as well as the latest products from leading global design brands showcasing their commitment to regenerative design.

The fair will focus on the theme of Nature, Nurture and Sustainable Beauty which will be expressed with sustainable design materials and industrial research, including not only architectural and urban innovation but also new modes of cultural and social interaction through design. 

A main ambition of the fair is seeking to engage not just the designer and industry but also the broader audience and bring awareness to the expanded technological, cultural, social and economic field of sustainability. 

Design China Beijing plays a pivotal role in this year’s global design calendar, as one of the leading international design trade events with a physical presence following the pandemic, according to the organisers.

Design China Beijing’s Show Director, Zhuo Tan comments: “After all the challenges we have been through over the past three years, Design China Beijing has developed into a hub of architectural and design innovation and has built a strong reputation in the design industry.  In the 4th edition of Design China Beijing, we would like to go beyond original designs and industrial research, and to deepen our understanding of 'sustainability' through designs from our exciting exhibitors and features.”
