NYCxDESIGN announces the return of Design Pavilion between May 10 to 21, coinciding with the 2025 NYCxDESIGN Festival taking place from May 15 to 21.

Since its inception in 2015, Design Pavilion has emerged as New York’s premier public outdoor design exhibition, accessible to all and held yearly in NYC's streets, plazas, and parks, celebrating the essence of the NYCxDESIGN Festival.

The pavilion curates an engaging array of innovative, experiential installations that highlight the skills of both well-known and up-and-coming designers, architects, and visionaries from around the world. These immersive projects not only promote a compelling vision of a sustainable future but also warmly encourage the public to participate, learn, and enjoy the experience.

Reflecting on 'Bamboo Cloud' from Design Pavilion 2023, situated at Gansevoort Plaza in the Meatpacking District: This installation reimagined the potential of bamboo in construction, enhancing its material properties while maintaining a lightweight, woven-basket design. It sets a new standard for the role.
