Surface Reflections
5-29 June 2025
Somerset House
Discover today’s designers and ideas that will change our world.
London Design Biennale returns to Somerset House from 5-29 June 2025 for its 5th edition, showcasing world-leading design, innovation, creativity and research by exhibitors from across the globe. The three-week international exhibition features curated installations accompanied by a programme of events, thought-leadership talks, performances and workshops.
This year’s theme ‘Surface Reflections’ by Artistic Director Dr Samuel Ross MBE, explores how ideas are fuelled by both our internal experiences and external influences. Revelations in life are prompted by personal histories that inform who we are. Together, these form the multifaceted hues of human experience.
