JOIN THE WAITLIST

Desert Design Week is a biannual, city-wide celebration of art, design, architecture, and community, shaped by the creative energy of the Southwest.

Held each spring and fall across Phoenix and Scottsdale, it brings together designers, architects, artists, collectors, and the design-minded community for a series of curated exhibitions, talks, and gatherings.

Through thoughtful programming and intentional experiences, each edition creates space for discovery, dialogue, and exchange, spotlighting both emerging talent and established voices while fostering meaningful connection across the design landscape.

Collected In Dialog

Collected in Dialog explores design as a collection of stories rather than isolated objects. When work is gathered and presented together, meaning emerges through relationships. Individual pieces gain depth through proximity, revealing the conversations that shape them.

Collections reflect how taste evolves through lived experience and curiosity. Throughout Desert Design Week 2026, exhibitions, design talks, and gatherings invite work to be experienced in conversation. Art, design, objects, ideas, and people come together with intention, allowing design to be understood as a living archive shaped by community.
