London Design Week runs at the Design Centre Chelsea Harbour from 8 to 12 March 2027, 140-plus showrooms and 30-plus pop-up House Guests, free to all.
London Design Week gives the Design Centre Chelsea Harbour over to one season’s launches from Monday 8 to Friday 12 March 2027.
The Design Centre has grown at Chelsea Harbour since 1987 and now runs to 28,000 square metres. More than 140 showrooms sit under one roof, the largest concentration of its kind anywhere.
Each showroom is a house’s own space, staffed by its own people and open all year. A fabric is seen against the collection it belongs to, not on a display built for five days.
Spring is when the international houses launch the collections that will furnish the following year. The trade comes to see what it will specify for the next twelve months.
More than thirty House Guests take temporary space beside the resident showrooms. Entry is free and no trade credential is asked, which is unusual for houses that otherwise sell only through the trade.
The Centre also stages Focus each September and WOW!house, a five-week showhouse launched in 2022, each summer.
