Future Talks returns to the Decorex stage

This year, visitors to South Africa’s hottest decor event can look forward to a new round of creative discussions as Future Talks returns to the Decorex stage.

Running in Cape Town from 6 to 9 June and Johannesburg from 1 to 4 August, Future Talks will cover the most pressing topics facing the design industry in a series of insightful and stimulating talks with a host of influential speakers.

An unparalleled forum for inspiration and innovation within the design industry, the talks will be led by multi-disciplinary visionary, storyteller and director, Bathandwa Ngwendu, who will assume the role of MC for the second consecutive year.

Hailing from Khayelitsha and nurtured in Kraaifontein, Cape Town, Ngwendu’s rich cultural background infuses his work, making him a respected voice in contemporary discourse. As the host of the Maak ‘n Plan podcast, Ngwendu has captivated audiences with content that resonates deeply, incubates ideas and provides insightful commentary on arts and culture in South Africa.

Commenting on the talks, Decorex said: “At the heart of Future Talks lies a commitment to transdisciplinary collaboration and sustainable design practices. Ngwendu champions the imperative for designers to engage with diverse perspectives, underscoring the transformative potential of such collaborations in addressing pressing global challenges.

 The series encompasses a multifaceted exploration of topics, ranging from sustainability and circularity, to design entrepreneurship and the transformative impact of technology on the creative landscape. Each session is meticulously curated to ignite critical discussions and inspire groundbreaking solutions to industry challenges.”

Not-to-miss Future Talks speakers include interior designer Megan Hesse, Driaan Claasen, an authority on the intersection of technology and design, and Anja Joubert, who will unveil groundbreaking research on future materials shaping design landscapes.
