Let’s rise up for an up+rising in design. In a world filled with fragility, anxiety, and unpredictability—commonly referred to as the BANI World—facing rapid and complex changes is no easy task for anyone. Yet, amidst this chaos, we believe that design can serve as a vital tool to inspire hope, transform negative energy into positive force, and empower people to tackle challenges creatively. Bangkok Design Week 2025 invites everyone to join in creating meaningful change under the theme “Up+Rising in Design”—a concept that seeks to push the boundaries of design, amplify positive energy, and generate new value for our lives, communities, and cities. This exhibition is the result of a collaboration between expertise from various sectors, including: CEA: The event organizer dedicated to driving transformation through design and creativity. Pink Blue Black & Orange: An award-winning design studio renowned for storytelling through fun, accessible, and highly creative works. The Mall Group: Experts in designing immersive experiences that evoke emotional engagement and achieve success in diverse spatial projects. This partnership showcases the power of collaboration, combining creativity, action, and specialized knowledge to produce works of genuine value. We hope this exhibition will not only share valuable insights but also inspire everyone to embrace the concept of “Up+Rising in Design” shifting perspectives on design and spreading positive energy to people and society.
