After a successful debut in 2025, we are excited to announce that we will be taking part in Clerkenwell Design Week again this year 19 -21 May 2026.

Clerkenwell Design Week (CDW) is an annual festival celebrating creativity, innovation, and excellence in design, set in the heart of London. The district of Clerkenwell is widely recognised for having one of the highest concentrations of creative businesses and architectural practices in the world, establishing it as a leading global hub for design.

This year we are excited to not only invite visitors to our showroom in Clerkenwell, for a jampacked week full of events, talks, mini exhibitions and networking but also we'll be exhibiting in the main hub of CDW within the Commercial Design in the Park area on stand PA2.

Read below to see what events we have on at our showroom. We look forward to seeing you there.

More about us
Great Eastern Quays Phase 2 - Facing Brick

Clerkenwell Design Week 2025

We ran a dynamic three-day programme at CDW, featuring a total of eight engaging events that explored the intersection of architecture, sustainability, craftsmanship and creativity. From insightful discussions on the environmental impact of brick production to hands-on workshops in handmade brickmaking, our events offered something for everyone.

Key highlights included sustainability-focused sessions with industry leaders like Ibstock Brick and Bond Bryan, as well as interactive experiences like the LEGO Architecture Challenge and our very own Brick Darts Challenge. The events provided a platform for knowledge exchange, creative engagement, and meaningful networking opportunities.
