Manifesto~0.1

Welcome to West Norfolk Design.


Our mission is to showcase ‘design & make’ creativity in West Norfolk. We’re walking every path, to rediscover who we are, how we got here & what we can be next. Our purpose is to write factual, published articles about how utterly fantastic West Norfolk & it’s people are. WNDesign will be capturing & categorising the 21st Century evolution of OUR ‘West Norfolk Identity & Aesthetic’.

We’re building westnorfolkdesign.org to act as a display case for all things, big & small, made & designed in West Norfolk. Collaborate! Make your mark, show West Norfolk & the World, who you are! We’re here to put you & what you do, on a pedestal.

Do you create? Do you innovate? Then we can help you.


The West Norfolk Design Manifesto is a declaration of our region’s unique aesthetic identity, a call to harness the enduring spirit of our fens, marshes, hills and shores to forge a 21st-century future. But a manifesto is just words without action & reaction. It is a canvas waiting for your masterstroke. For your input.

We are reaching out to all inventive minds, all creative souls, to every single maker/creator/inventor in West Norfolk & Around. It’s time to put our beautiful county on the map—not with generic trends, but with the raw, honest, and utterly unique talent that thrives here. We want to demonstrate the immense breadth of creative capacity in our community, spanning every possible creative job or discipline.

Get Involved: The Scope is Limitless, it’s about you, it’s about us, being ourselves, together.

If you have creativity in your heart and mind, you belong with us. We publish detailed articles, online, via all channels, building a vibrant showcase, for ALL forms of creativity in West Norfolk. Our aim is to create a new identity for ourselves a new ‘West Norfolk Aesthetic’.
