Design changes and improves lives, inspires creativity and new forms of expression.
It also enhances business competitiveness in today's crowded marketplace.
DesignSingapore is Singapore's response to these propositions and opportunities.
As a national initiative, DesignSingapore aims to place Singapore on the world map for design creativity. It looks to developing a thriving, multi-disciplinary design cluster of industries and activities in Singapore that has relevance and impact globally. The initiative also aims to bring design to business boardrooms, new audiences and new markets.
The DesignSingapore Council formed in August 2003 as a department within the Ministry of Information, Communications and the Arts, is the national agency for promotion and development of Singapore design.
The Council is dedicated to enhancing Singapore's design capabilities and growing the appeal of design in everyday life. This is achieved through design scholarships to nurture Singapore designers, as well as research and development focused on design excellence. The Council has also played a pivotal role in the establishment of design studios to grow the design industry. Up and coming Singapore designers have also raised their international profile with support from DesignSingapore's Overseas Promotion Partnership Programme.
