About

The Sustainable Design Summit (SDS) brings together brand owners, interior designers, specifiers, and suppliers from across hospitality travel interiors to cross-pollinate ideas alongside leading sustainability specialists.

Evolved from the annual Summit, SDS has become a yearly calendar of events facilitating the space for knowledge sharing, product sourcing, and networking through in-person and online Working Groups, and bi-yearly Summits.

SDS was the first event of its kind to unite representatives from the cruise, hotel, and aircraft interiors sectors, which now expands into all hospitality travel interiors sectors including rail and automotive. We invite delegates to share ideas, progress and challenges faced when implementing sustainable initiatives, and join a community of like-minded peers from across hospitality travel interiors.

Shaping sustainable interiors for land, sea, and air

Sustainability is today’s most urgent topic for interior designers. Sustainable Design Summit provides a year-round global platform dedicated to making sustainable choices easier for interior designers working in the hospitality travel interiors sectors.

Through in-person and online Working Groups, and bi-yearly Summits, Sustainable Design Summit facilitates the space for those passionate about sustainable design to connect and collaborate, share ideas, challenges, and solutions, and drive progress toward a more sustainable future. 

Events

 

Sustainable Design Summit serves as a platform to:

  • Inspire – dive into real-world examples and case studies providing commercial context and celebrating truly sustainable design
  • Educate – discover different perspectives and approaches, new materials, and innovative thinking which together create tangible outcomes
  • Guide – develop a clear understanding of the new era of sustainability goals for interiors and create a roadmap for future projects
  • Collaborate – have new and necessary conversations with buyers and suppliers across the hospitality travel interiors sectors

The Working Groups

The educational Working Groups have been created to allow the Sustainable Design Summit community to share progress, explore challenges, and continue important conversations throughout the year, while building connections across the sector.

These roundtable events, led by leading hospitality brands, take place online and in-person globally, providing those working within the hospitality travel interiors sectors invaluable learning and networking opportunities.

The Summit

The bi-annual buyer-to-supplier Summit delivers a thought-leading Conference Programme of keynotes and breakout sessions focusing on case studies and companies that are at the forefront of progress across hospitality travel interiors.

The one-day event features a sustainable Product Showcase and numerous networking opportunities throughout the day allowing delegates to develop their knowledge, discover sustainable products, and create new relationships across the sectors.
