Squeak & Bubble - Royal Designers Summer Session 2025

Squeak & Bubble - Royal Designers Summer Session
Friday 17 October ‐ Sunday 19 October 2025

Squeak & Bubble
Let's make the most of skrap.

We extend an invitation to join this conversation - to those finding their feet or looking for a catalyst or safe harbour; beyond formal education with its curriculum, classes and friends; to those moving beyond a first job, a teacher, or a mentor; to those who may want to engage with kindred spirits that spark them into the next phase of life and work.

Royal Designers Sessions are intergenerational gatherings of RDIs and emerging designers, scientists and engineers to share, inspire and challenge. It is an opportunity to explore this year's theme of "Squeak & Bubble” openly, playfully and inventively to bring about change for the better - nourishment, sustenance, energy, vitality, inventiveness, alchemy, floating, release, health …or something else entirely.

Reflections from past participants
‘It is a surprisingly heady mix - an ambitious, optimistic space for thought, action and play.’

‘The weekend felt like it was about opening doors to uncharted thoughts. The mix of voices, the setting, and the shared curiosity created a space for unexpected connections.’
