"We live in an age of hyper resonance, the consequences of which are both exhilarating and devastating. Everything we design and everything we produce resonates."
Es Devlin, Artistic Director
Designed to continue the conversation, this memento aimed to spark new ideas and inspiration, which hopefully grew beyond the 2021 Biennale.
The 1000 boxes included cards to build your own cathedral of creativity, an acorn to plant your ideas and a sketchbook to record them, stickers to keep asking the important questions and art prints to contemplate how design can change the world.
500 projects, over 50 countries, 6 continents. We called, and you answered. The Design in An Age of Crisis Gallery sees the response to the global OPEN CALL issued in 2020 by Chatham House and London Design Biennale that invited radical design thinking from the world’s design community, the public and young people.
The exhibition is supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England.

London Design Biennale presented four Medals to the most outstanding contributions to the exhibition in 2021. The Medals, handmade by London-based jewellery partnership Shimell and Madden, celebrate cultural exchange and recognise the work and achievement of designers through four categories. Three Medals were awarded by the event’s International Jury and one Medal was voted for by visitors to the exhibition.
