Capturing the passion of design professionals across Australasia for 21 years, the 2009 designEX fair showcases the latest trends and innovations in contemporary design and interior architecture.

This year, designEX returns to Melbourne with the new textiles feature – Kaleidoscope – sitting alongside the favourites of the Latitude platform for emerging designers and the D4S (design for sustainability) showcase.

The fair has attracted more than 35 speakers for its international seminar series, presenting on over 20 different subjects. Celebrated Danish Architect Bjarke Ingels of the multi-award winning practice, BIG, will be the keynote speaker.
