World Design Capital is a biennial global competition culminating in a year-long celebration of the role of design in improving the social, cultural and economic life of cities.
The title will be conferred on cities that have demonstrated exceptional progress using the varied tools design offers. They must prove that government, industry, educational institutions, designers and, in fact, the very population of the city, are working individually and in concert to realise the full potential of design. We are looking for sustainable and visible results that enhance the experience of the city and improve the quality of life for its citizens.
