Design for the community is becoming a popular trend in Vietnam and around the world, contributing to the implementation of the 17 sustainable development goals (SDGs) of the United Nations. With the aim of introducing creative designs that bring positive values and improve the quality of life, the 2025 International Exhibition displays works in many fields: graphic design, fashion design and interior design. These works reflect the unique nuances and distinct marks of authors from many countries.
The workshop held on the same day attracted many experts from Vietnam and Korea to participate in sharing about promotion trends, analyzing cultural values, as well as the role of art in the community.
