August is swiftly approaching, bringing with it Decorex Cape Town’s counterpart, Decorex Joburg. Taking place at the Sandton Convention Centre from 1 to 4 August 2024, this event has become one of the most anticipated highlights of the decor and design calendar, largely for allowing a large audience access to this world, under one roof. Running simultaneously alongside 100% Design Africa, it’s one of the definitive showcases of contemporary design on the African continent. 100% Design Africa is a curated product showcase including a café created by Wolkberg Casting Studios; a new set of Future Talks in the Future of Design area; a dedicated display by Designer of the Year, Tristan du Plessis; 100% Hospitality by Belgotex X Hesse Kleinloog; and a host of new product launches by local designers such as Joe Paine.
The Future Talks stage will feature a diverse array of local creatives tackling some of the most relevant topics in the design world today, such as sustainability, access to market, retaining creative energy and making an artistic venture commercially viable. This line-up aims to inspire and provoke thought. Bathandwa Ngwendu, the storyteller, director, and host of the Maak ‘n Plan podcast, will MC the talks.
“Future Talks is a platform for forward-thinking ideas and collaboration among industry leaders. It’s crucial to inspire and educate our community, pushing the boundaries of design and sustainability.” – Bielle Bellingham, Executive Creative Director of Decorex.
The event as a whole brings together a diverse group of creatives and speakers, including interior designers, architects, sustainable designers, branding experts, and educators. This diversity ensures that a wide range of perspectives are represented, providing attendees with a holistic view of the design landscape and its future direction.
