KL Design Week 2010

It’s back! This year will be the second time for our beloved city of Kuala Lumpur to participate in the world culture of hosting design festivals and dabble into the new economy, creative-wise. Says KLDW President En Izuldin Hani, “We are targeting a surge in the Malaysian Creative Economy. If the world now is championing the creative economy, what better way to start at the grassroot level?” says KLDW President En Izuldin Hani. He adds, “If Creativity is the King of the NEW economy, then KLDW is the palace where Designers are its Dignitaries! It’s about time designers to get the recognition!”

Packed with exhibitions, forums, talks and installations, KLDW 2010 will be taking place in 10 locations all over the Kuala Lumpur city. From the 1st to 16th May, 2010, KL will see a colourful 16-days festival of mixed design disciplines from Architecture & Interior Design, Multimedia & Animation, Art & Graphics, Creative Crafts, Music & Soundscape, and Character & Product Design.

Playing with the year 2010 (Twenty Ten) as a theme, this year’s KLDW will present 20 showcases in 10 different locations all over Kuala Lumpur, with 20 international speakers side by side with 10 Malaysian Masters and 20 Performers and 10 Musical Groups to end this event in a very glorious way. All that and more this coming May!
