The theme of the fourth Zurich Design Weeks is TEAM UP. This year, Switzerland's largest design event is focusing on collaboration – because without it, innovation in design would not be possible.

The Swiss Design Lounge of the Museum für Gestaltung Zürich is once again the central hub of the festival and heart of the event.

"The motto TEAM UP is intended to encourage collaboration and promote exchange," says Gabriela Chicherio, Festival Director of Zurich Design Weeks. "We are also increasingly focusing on the principles of circular design. The City of Zurich was the first Swiss city to sign the Circular Cities Declaration. And it is precisely in this transformation to a circular society that design plays a key role."
