ABOUT THIS CPD EVENT
This session brings a representative from Maison&Objet into conversation with selected South African designers and members of the Rising Talent jury, focusing on the Maison&Objet Rising Talent spotlight. The discussion explores design, cross-border connections and collaborations, and the ideas, practices and partnerships shaping the industry across the continent. As international relationships among leading platforms, design weeks and creative institutions continue to expand, the conversation reflects on exchange, influence and opportunity, and what these connections mean for the future of African design.
