This Autumn, from 4 to 5 October, the Clerkenwell Design Trail (CDT) will bring the A&D community together to re-connect and network across Clerkenwell’s historic cobbles.

The stand-alone event will bring the area to life as CDW's iconic pink trail, flags and window vinyl return to EC1. The two-day programme will be jam packed with engaging events all within walking distance, allowing visitors to explore the area with ease and discover the latest cutting-edge products for commercial interiors. CDT showrooms will showcase product launches and new collections as well as host workshops, talks, demonstrations, parties and more, spotlighting Clerkenwell as the UK's most important hub for design.

Participating showrooms include high-end furniture, surfaces, acoustic specialist, kitchen and bathroom brands who will all be throwing open their doors for a series of engaging events over the two days.

“We’re delighted to be welcoming the A&D community back to Clerkenwell this Autumn. It’s an opportunity for the industry to reconnect and explore the latest collections that resident showrooms have to offer.”

Jedd Barry, Senior Marketing Manager for Design at Media 10
