Today, SEGD is honored to serve as the global host of International Design Day 2026, presenting 11 conversations premiering every 90 minutes from 6:00 AM–9:00 PM ET.

Across architecture, branding, experiential design, and cultural institutions, leaders from around the world are exploring this year’s theme, The Spaces In Between—the thresholds where design shapes connection, community, and belonging.
