PDF is happening on 30th–31st January 2026, and we're delighted to announce FoF Pune as the outreach partner.
One of India's premier annual design gatherings, bringing together designers, thought leaders, educators, and innovators from across disciplines to explore the future of design in response to real-world shifts.
PDF 2026 is anchored by the theme "The India Lens". The festival invites participants to look inward examining design through India's layered cultural, technological, and entrepreneurial realities while remaining globally relevant. The theme encourages reflection on self-sufficiency, youth energy, innovation, and emerging forms of expression, rethinking what design means in the Indian context today.
