The World Design Capital® project is a biennial international competition created to identify and recognise cities that have effectively used design to revive the city and improve its quality of life.

The IDA World Design Report aims to map the generic design sector in 12 countries as a pilot project to determine the contribution of the design economy and the level of strategic engagement of design as a socio-economic and cultural developmental imperative at governmental level.

Indigo seeks to understand what makes design distinctive to its home and the connections to the place where it is made and for whom it is made.
