Chosen on the strength of their craft, design flair and quality of product, these 75 talented individuals have been selected by a panel of experts from across the design industry and are tipped to be the iconic designers of the future.

New Designers is the UK’s leading exhibition for emerging design. The show takes place at the Business Design Centre in London and features the work of over 3,000 graduates from almost 200 design courses across the country, from 28 June to 1 July and 5 to 8 July.

This year’s One Year On exhibition is 25% bigger than previous years and includes kinetic jewellery, illustrations (which draw inspiration from vintage matchbox artwork), furniture made from a distinctive 5,000 year-old bog oak and a brutalist inspired ceramic tea set.

One Year On design-hunters can discover original ideas, bold contemporary styles and product innovation all across the board. The exhibition also reveals the latest trends around ecology and sustainability, new technology and the contemporary revival of traditional craft techniques.

More importantly, all exhibited work is available to purchase or commission, making it easier than ever for visitors to buy directly from designers at the show.

Designer Rheanna Lingham, owner and founder of Shoreditch store Luna & Curious, returns as curator for One Year On 2017. She says: ‘2017 is a very exciting year for One Year On at New Designers as we expand our space and have more participants than ever.

‘This year will be noted for its bold colour and graphics and insurgence of furniture makers, new ideas for today but rooted in traditional techniques. It is always a pleasure to work with such vibrant and determined designers as they begin their journey within creative business.’
