Jerusalem Design Week, initiated by the Hansen House – Center for Design, Media and Technology, and promoted by the Jerusalem Development Authority and the Ministry for Jerusalem and Heritage and supported by the Jerusalem Foundation, will operate this year under the theme of “EAST” between the 13th-20th of June, 2019 at the Hansen House in Jerusalem.

In its fourth international edition, JDW continues to be Israel’s leading public design event, with over 22,000 visitors, 150 participating Israeli and International designers in over 40 events, exhibitions and installations, and new collaborations with leading local and international partners. JDW encourages new works with a non-commercial, theme-based emphasis and a cross-disciplinary approach in targeting new formats for exhibitions, performances and events.

Jerusalem Design Week 2019 calls on designers of all disciplines to submit proposals for new or existing works under the yearly theme of “EAST” and its six chapters (see below). The scale of the works is flexible (single works, large scale projects, installations, exhibitions, performance works, etc.), with a special emphasis on works which allow outdoor presentation.

The selected works will receive financing.

Submissions are open to individual designers or teams.
