ByDesign Festival

About

Welcome to the ByDesign Festival!

ByDesign Festival 2023 is here!

ByDesign Festival is a cross-cultural exploration of people, structures, and ideas at the intersection of design and the moving image.

Featuring a broad, inclusive selection of films, performances, and interactive activities, ByDesign invites festivalgoers to interrogate their own relationships to personal and collective identity and to examine how humanity’s understanding of itself is central to the ways in which it creates the physical world.

Read about past editions of the festival below, or visit here to submit to the 2024 festival in the fall.
