The annual Atlanta Design Festival is an open platform, ideal for fostering international dialogue on the economic and social impact of design. It provides connection, the free exchange of knowledge, design thinking and community building. Each year the Festival brings together independent designers, established brands, young talent, international speakers from academia, NGOs and government entities, exhibitions, installations and architecture tours – all centered on the economic and societal impact of design. We define this activity as ‘the design economy’ – the direct and indirect value created by those who use design in a wide variety of industries.

MA! Architecture Tours are back. October 3-4, 2026.

This year we've combined the Serenbe tour with the Atlanta metro tour, one route, two days, more homes than ever.

Every property on this year's tour was chosen for the same reason: material choice, spatial thinking, sustainability, and interiors built to hold up under real use. Architects and homeowners will be at many of the stops, so you're hearing the thinking behind the work, not just looking at a finished space.

10am-4pm both days. Serenbe is about 40 minutes southwest of Atlanta, a full route map is coming so you can plan your day.

Tickets are live now:
Single ticket: $60
Friend of ADF: $45 (sign up at checkout)
Group of 4: $180
Student/low income: $40
Serenbe only: $25
