From May 18th to 21st, 2006, DESIGNMAI will be presenting more than 100 projects reflecting current design trends and acting as a meeting point for the international design scene in the city for the fourth time.

The close relationship between design and urbanity are to be at the center of this year’s DESIGNMAI: the central theme is DESIGNCITY. Design is seen as an increasingly important factor in the location and structure of our urban landscape. In Berlin these links are extremely clear, last but not least therefore in January 2006 Berlin was appointed as “City of Design” by the UNESCO.

DESIGNMAI 2006 is concentrated into four days and one central location: the DESIGNCITY in a former postal train station at Gleisdreieck. Here in hall A an exhibition emerges with contributions by over 60 designers, agencies and projects dealing with the theme City and Design, halls B and C assemble further exhibitions, presentations and the auditorium with lectures, debates and the symposium DESIGNCITY.
