SINGAPORE DESIGN WEEK RETURNS: 11 – 21 SEP 2025

11 days. 4 districts. Endless inspiration.

Singapore Design Week (SDW) is back—bigger, bolder, and bursting with creativity. From the buzzing hub at the National Design Centre to immersive experiences across Bras Basah.Bugis, Marina, Orchard, and Singapore Science Park, SDW 2025 brings design to every corner of the city.

This year’s theme, Nation by Design, celebrates how design has shaped Singapore into a liveable, loveable city, from housing and healthcare to sustainability and community. And our story is still unfolding.

Join us to experience the power of design in transforming everyday life, and reimagine what’s next.
