About the Design Council
























How we work

Astaire and Rogers, Rolls and Royce, Morecambe and Wise, Marks and Spencer are all successful partnerships which achieved much more by working together than they could alone.

The Design Council and our partners do just the same. We work with a whole range of local and national business organisations, government departments and agencies and educational organisations.

  • Partnerships help us to be customer focused and to identify and understand the needs of different constituencies. We can then jointly develop programmes of activity and practical tools in order to achieve shared objectives.
  • Partnerships allow us to reach a far wider audience with our message and our tools.
  • Our research activity is part of a dialogue with our partners so that they can take advantage of world leading design knowledge when they plan the future of their organisations.
  • Many of the events in Design in Education Week and Design in Business Week each year are planned and run jointly with our partners in those sectors.
Each of our partnerships works differently, with a variety of shared objectives. But all of them include one purpose: to help our partners and those they work with use design as a strategic planning, business and organisational tool, so increasing prosperity and well-being.
