a truly global affair, the london design fair 2018 will host a wealth of exhibitors from 36 countries. the largest international fair – taking place during the london design festival – prizes innovation, quality and diversity in design, and visitors can once more expect a first class show. with its highly curated elements and compelling editorial, the fair’s expressed intention is to heighten the visitor’s experience. the fair’s material of the year is plastic: hotly debated and very much a pressing concern, the emphasis is on finding new and better ways of using this contentious material.
the london design fair provides a valuable forum for showcasing international design and is proud to have 13 country pavilions at this year’s event, surpassing previous years. alongside the guest country japan, other pavilions include portugal, spain, italy, the netherlands, korea, sweden, denmark and finland. the british craft pavilion will make a welcome return, curated once again by hole & corner. each country pavilion has its own strong design narrative and mission, many of which were developed in conjunction with the fair’s team.
each year, over 28,000 influential retail buyers, producers, architects, designers, interior designers, press and design-savvy public, will attend to see the very latest in furniture, lighting, textiles, materials and conceptual installations, from all around the world. the forthcoming fair will again take place in the one and only old truman brewery, from 20th-23rd september 2018. it promises to be a memorable show.
