NOT ONLY HOW IT LOOKS. WHAT IT CHANGES.
Prishtina Sustainable Design Week 2026 is a transformative cultural event in Kosovo, dedicated to shifting the local creative landscape towards sustainability and innovation.
Prishtina Sustainable Design Week is an initiative of DYVÓ, a design platform based in Prishtina. Its 2026 edition, NEXT FUTURES, treats design as a decision that affects people, materials, the environment, technology, public space and everyday life.
The programme has four pillars: Sense for conferences and talks, Create for workshops, Act for public art and activities, and Narrate for exhibitions. This guide connects them to events, venue pages and the map without presenting unconfirmed details as facts.
