pIn case you haven’t heard, this time next year, Beijing will be bursting at the seams with design events of every kind at the inaugural a href=”http://bjdw.org”Bejing Design Week/a, a 6-day event heralding China’s burgeoning design scene and signaling a desire to bring an international design audience to one of its liveliest cities. Aric Chen, journalist, design critic, and recent transplant from New York to Beijng, serves as BJDW’s Creative Director, building on his experience co-directing 100% Design Shanghai with the late Tobias Wong in 2008 and 2009. /p

pThough the event is still a year away, the Beijing Design Week committee has already done loads: bringing in design firm 2×4 to design the event’s identity (above), hosting a preview event during London Design Festival, inviting London to bring some of its cutting-edge design content to Beijing for the event, and arranging for a large-scale installation in Tiananmen Square, to be unveiled on October 1st, 2011, the anniversary of the founding of the PRC. /pa href=”http://www.core77.com/blog/events/beijing_design_week_coming_in_fall_2011__17534.asp”(more…)/a
