Save the Date, Don’t Miss Out on the MDC Difference

What makes the Monterey Design Conference (MDC) so unique? Global names + a stunning setting that initiates informal, spontaneous meet-ups and conversations.

See inspiring names speak in the naturally-lit Merrill Hall. Run into speakers on a windswept path, eat together in the communal dining hall, relax with new and old friends on the deck of the lodge.

Internationally Acclaimed Speakers
The conference features international figures from across continents. Think Japan’s Kazuyo Sejima; Ireland’s Yvonne Farrell, Brazil’s Marcio Kogan, Holland’s Rem Koolhaas, all speakers in previous years.

The ever shifting line-up is programmed by designers for designers. Each year brings inspiration and insight.

All this and, yes, all the learning units you can imagine.

Set Aside the Dates. Be at Asilomar for MDC, October 23 – 25, 2026.
Registration + Housing reservations open March 2026.
