For this year's main theme, DesignTide came upon the word "PLAY", born out of the sheer air of excitement at last year's DT. More than proposing new ideas, more than pursuing style. Something to get wild about, something that's pure fun, that can't be explained by logic, and something that awakens new emotions and energy in all of us. Herein lies the next answer to our central question, "what we REALLY need". We dream of everyone's "PLAY" descending onto the grounds of DesignTide this autumn in harmony, to be enjoyed till your heart's content.
