Welcome to Material Matters

After a hugely successful inaugural edition, Material Matters returns in 2023. Based on the critically acclaimed podcast of the same name, the fair brings together over 40 world-leading brands, designers, makers, manufacturers and organisations to celebrate the importance of materials and their ability to shape our lives. Book your tickets today.

Taking place once again at the iconic Bargehouse at Oxo Tower Wharf on London's Southbank, the fair includes five floors of products, site-specific installations, a marketplace, a learning area and an extensive talks programme, providing a new platform for engagement, collaboration and inspiration for the design and architecture industries. Material Matters investigates how the design industry can address issues around the circular economy and why material intelligence is so important to all our lives.
