ABOUT LADF
WHO WE ARE
The LA Design Festival is the premier citywide celebration of design in all its forms — a dynamic, multidisciplinary experience that illuminates the intersections of culture, creativity, and community in Los Angeles.
Our tent pole event takes form over the course of a four day festival where we experience studio tours, panel discussions, salons, curated exhibits and installations, gallery shows, and a block party.
Throughout the year LADF hosts community events and programming that brings Los Angeles' creative community together for growth, connection, and conversation
