DesignSingapore Council's (Dsg) vision is for Singapore to be an innovation-driven economy and a loveable city through design by 2025.

About the Outreach & Engagement Division
To develop Singapore into a thriving innovation-driven economy and loveable city by design, the Outreach & Engagement division creates experiences that celebrate the Singapore design brand and translate the value and impact of design through programmes that are accessible for all.
We realise this through the Singapore Design Week, Asia's premier design festival; President*s Design Award, the nation's highest design accolade; and impactful and inspiring programmes that we bring into the community, both locally and internationally.
Singapore Design Week (SDW)
One of Asia's premier design festivals, SDW is a celebration of creativity and innovation, championing thought leadership and celebrating the best of design from Singapore and beyond through three defining festival pillars: Design Futures, Design Marketplace and Design Impact.
  • Design Futures envisions a forward-looking Singapore that embraces design for the future to generate positive impact across different industries.
  • Design Marketplace uncovers lifestyle trends from around the globe, with a spotlight on the fast-growing Southeast Asia region.
  • Design Impact inspires with innovative and impactful design solutions that tackle society's biggest questions and create a better world by design.

Festival Highlights include:
  • Design Futures Forum: SDW's key thought leadership platform exploring design of the future and the future of design.
  • Design Districts: SDW Design Districts reflect the unique character and charm of its community, with impactful showcases and activations by our very own leading design curators and more.
  • Design Community: An Open Call that invites brands, partners and the design community to present inspiring and impactful ground-up programmes in response to the festival theme and pillars.


President*s Design Award (P*DA)
The P*DA is Singapore's most prestigious design accolade. Established in 2006, the Award recognises excellence across all design disciplines. The founding objectives of the Award are to recognise the significant achievements of Singapore's design talents and the contributions they have made to Singapore's economic competitiveness and quality of life; engender pride in the nation's outstanding designs and leading designers among Singaporeans and in turn nurture among Singaporeans a greater awareness of quality design in all areas; and demonstrate to industry, businesses, the general public and the international community the government's commitment to design development and promotion.
The Award is conferred by the President of the Republic of Singapore, and is jointly administered by the DesignSingapore Council and the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA).
