The festival is a carefully-curated event that brings together the world’s most creative minds, writes Marchelle Abrahams.
The annual Design Indaba kicked off at Cape Town’s Artscape Theatre this week. The festival is a carefully-curated event that brings together the world’s most creative minds.
The three-day conference is an intersection of business, innovation, and most importantly, expression. But it’s also a platform for SA’s up-and-coming creatives to showcase their products.
This year organisers are including Nightscape - an inner-city festival immersed at the Artscape Piazza.
Below are a list of highlights of the festival and what visitors can expect.
