Lodz Design Festival 2011
20. - 30. October 2011

Lodz Design Festival is an event which, since its creation in 2007, has been the ground for thought and experience exchange for artistic circles who identify with design in general, and for business. The efforts of the organizer - Lodz Art Center - and the support of many partners made it possible for the festival to become the largest Polish event on design only a few years after it had been launched as a local, minor exhibition. The festival presents design in its various modes - starting from industrial design, through arts and crafts, graphic design, architecture, up to fashion.
