The LISBON DESIGN SHOW holds its 7th edition 5 - 9 October at the International Fair of Lisbon.

LXD is the largest design event in Portugal, in the equipment/product (house and lifestyle), fashion (clothing, jewellery, footwear and other accessories) and interiors and visual industries, and has established itself as the only high-quality platform for the promotion of national design, in support of young designers and creators, schools, emerging brands and start-ups.

This annual event brings together more than 300 designers and brands that use the platform to present their new brands, products and collections. In addition, they take advantage of the contact with the market, identifying sales points in the retail network and, ďŹ nally, the direct sales to more than 55.000 visitors.

Besides the showroom, the event offers a dynamic programme over ďŹ ve days, with workshops, conferences and fashion shows.

The Lisbon Design Show aims to promote design and establish it as a competitive and distinctive aspect of the products and organizations, making it stand out as the only design event in Portugal to take on a business approach.

The Lisbon Design Show is a multidisciplinary and creative event and, as such, aims to showcase the identity of the designers, businesses, cultures, societies, styles of life, pleasure and the art of living.

This, by fostering a network of contacts and businesses, in a single venue, placing design at the centre of the discussion and of the agendas of players and design promoters.

For many years a generational and conceptual "gap" existed between industry and Portuguese designers/creative artists.

However, it is clear both that a paradigm shift is taking place, and that the partnerships between these two complementary universes, although rare in the past, are becoming ever more frequent, strategically efďŹ cient, and economically successful.

More and more, the exception is becoming the rule, making it vital that the multiple processes and heterogeneous factors that characterise these synergies, be understood. The 7th edition of The Lisbon Design Show aims to contribute to the success of this symbiosis, through debate, the exchange of experiences and the creation of partnerships - a social and economic MEETING-POINT in support of the industry, designers, creative professionals, brands and start-ups.

DESIGN(IN)DUSTRY, a word which is singular in its morphology but plural in its meaning, is used as the motto for an event which will attempt to identify the processes and existing advantages in the articulation between design and industry. This, as a strategic element, decisive in the characterisation of the products in terms of their functional/ aesthetic quality, differentiation and value within the global market.
