Some projects should not disappear after the show, the thesis, the studio, or the prototype. DESIGN X EDGE 2026 invites emerging designers, artists, creative technologists, researchers, students, recent graduates, studios, and early-career practitioners to submit projects that open new ways of seeing, making, sensing, relating, and imagining the future. We welcome experimental objects, installations, publications, visual systems, speculative tools, AI-assisted works, ecological proposals, material studies, civic projects, performances, prototypes, and research-based creative practices across design, art, technology, culture, and future life. Shortlisted projects will be featured online through DESIGN X SERIES and named in the annual DESIGN X EDGE publication. Selected projects will be included in the annual book, available globally through bookstores and online retail channels.
