CDF22 will take place at the University of Gloucestershire’s Park Campus. 🏞🏰 This format removes barriers between expert and audience offering formal and informal engagement opportunities and in depth exploration. Plus, there's ducks! 🦆 ❤️ We can’t wait! @uniofglos

Patrick Grant (previous CDF speaker) and the team at @CommClothing are looking dapper in a photo shoot for their sustainable clothing range. @paddygrant started his clothing brand to prove that a happier future is possible. 🙌✨ Thanks for being such an eco icon Patrick!

The CDF aims to reach new audiences with concepts of creativity 💭 and design 🎨 and how they underlie their lives. Here's a sneak peek into what the festival is like. 👀 If you want to help get this year’s Festival up and running, give us a bell on direct message.


Our 2 day festival is a fast-moving, interactive experience with an exciting mix of talks, workshops and fringe events throughout the town. There’s plenty to do and we need volunteers to help. Contact [email protected] if you’re interested in volunteering at CDF22.

Tina Touli, @tinatoulidesign, spoke at CDF19 about the need to blend the physical world with the digital world to discover areas of previously unexplored design 💻🎨… … so it’s no surprise that she’s since been making awesome designs (like these) with her 3D printer! 🖨

It's been a while since we've seen these two! George and Andy, (CDF trustees,) are calling out to the Cheltenham creative community to be part of this year's design festival. So, if you're a fellow designer or creator then get in touch - we would love you to be a part of it.

Since we saw our friend Craig Oldham @OfficeOfCraig as a speaker at CDF19, he's been busy creating ‘The Shining: A Visual and Cultural Haunting’: a deep dive into Stanley Kubrick’s film ‘The Shining’. The book is made to look like the writing project Jack is typing in the film.

Circular fashion is the future, and it's arrived! Every product from the @bbcearth @teemillstore store is designed to be sent back to suppliers when it's worn out. Instead of adding to landfills, they make new products from old. And their new collection has landed!

11 benches in the city of Copenhagen have been raised by 1 metre to match the UN's predicted sea level in 2100. A thought-provoking campaign that shows what the future might be like. Image credit: Maria Schumann & Kristian Vestergaar #design #communitydesign #earthday
