Head's up! DesignPhiladelphia, the nation's largest celebration of design, is just three weeks away, with over 130 events scheduled for the 6-day festival.

Moving into its fifth year, DesignPhiladelphia is the largest national celebration of its kind. This city-wide cultural event spotlights all things design from architecture to interior design, fashion to product design, textile to graphic design. It's a journey exploring exhibitions, workshops, studio tours, lectures, special events and product roll-outs that inspire, engage, excite and delight.

Some highlights include Design Buy Sell: Local Design for a Local Market, a regional design marketplace; Dialogues on Design: Ellen Lupton; So Re Fa, a "socially responsible" fashion show; and a bike rack design competition sponsored by the Bressler Group. For more, check out their extensive design calendar, participants list, interview series, and image galleries.
