When we speak about pioneering the African design movement and taking it to the global stage, one name stands at the absolute forefront.
We are deeply honored to announce industry pioneer, cultural entrepreneur, and bridge builder T**i Ogufere () as our Keynote Speaker for today’s World Interiors Day 2026 celebration!
T**i’s impact on the creative economy is monumental. As the Group CEO of the Africa Design Network, founder of Design Week Lagos, and the visionary founder of the Interior Designers Association of Nigeria (IDAN), she has spent decades advancing the industry. She made history as the first African President of the International Federation of Interior Architects/Designers (IFI).
Beyond her leadership, she is a prolific author of over 27 books and an acclaimed producer whose documentaries like the Made by Design series and Mama Nike: Queen of Adire, have charted new territory for African storytelling on global platforms like TIFF.
Get ready for an extraordinary keynote session that will challenge, inspire, and elevate how we view design as a tool for economic growth and cultural preservation in the digital age.
Theme: Balancing Nature, Culture & Technology in the Digital Age
