Design Direction: Abstraction

'Abstraction' design trend at London Design Week 2024

Forms are distilled down to their simplest in this design direction: channel abstract expressionist art, and the colour and form of the Bauhaus, across furniture, flooring, lighting and trimmings.

Curious to see more? The Design Centre’s creative director, Arabella McNie, and head of pubic relations, Rebecca Gleeson, will give a design masterclass introducing this and all the other latest design directions for London Design Week 2024. Discover what’s on the radar at 12.30pm at Arte on Friday 15 March (Second Floor, Design Centre East).
