The Architecture, Design, Fashion team develops dialogue on UK contemporary design through a range of activities and events including exhibitions, seminars, workshops, collaborative projects, educational initiatives and specialists’ visits to the UK developed in conjunction with our colleagues and partners in over 100 countries. We also provide information on British architecture, design and fashion across the globe.

Our programme reflects the wide range of disciplines practised to a world class standard by British designers and includes graphic design, fashion, architecture, city planning and the built environment, interior design, digital media, interaction, industrial and product design, furniture and design education.

For biographical information and interviews on dozens of British designers go to the Design in Britain microsite, a collaboration between the British Council and the Design Museum.
