Warsaw Home & Contract przełożone na 2021 rok
Warsaw Home & Contract fair postponed to 2021
In connection with the global SARS COVID-2019 pandemic, we would like to inform you that after a thorough analysis of all circumstances and accepting numerous requests from Fair Exhibitors, we have decided to postpone the event Warsaw Home & amp; Contract and the parallel Warsaw Build on October 27-30, 2021.
As event organizers, we carefully considered all the circumstances for and against the organization of Warsaw Home & amp; Contract and the Warsaw Build fair. The result of the discussion was the decision to postpone the fair until 2021, but it was extremely difficult for us to make it.
We listened to numerous voices from the industry and, above all, from our Exhibitors who create this fair. We are aware that the continuing pandemic and the exceptional circumstances associated with it are a novelty not only for us, but also for our clients. Dynamically changing and stricter regulations along with travel restrictions and the growing number of confirmed cases of coronavirus infection make the organization of an international event impossible. Restrictions in movement would severely affect both the Exhibitors and the turnout of guests from all over the world who visit the fair. Moreover, the safety of all participants is of paramount importance to us, therefore we cannot allow our Fair to become a threat to human health.
The fifth edition of the Warsaw Home & amp; fair The contract will take place in the current formula, in parallel with the Warsaw Build fair. We believe that the return of these events in 2021 will be very important from a business point of view for many companies in the interior design and decoration industry. We are determined to use the coming time effectively to refine the details and implement solutions that will improve both events.
See you in 2021!
Knowledge necessary for action – Design Forum
Knowledge necessary for action – Design Forum
Eight different categories
The Design Forum featured eight categories, joined by a common theme changing each day. The first day focused on the notion of awareness (“I’m conscious”), the second concerned the issue of responsibility (“I’m responsible”) and the third one regarded the concept of well-being (“I’m well”). The way these slogans are interpreted within fields such as interior design, design and art, sustainability or trend analysis, constituted the substance of talks given by experts and world famous designers. The fair’s visitors had the unique opportunity to attend the lectures of many fascinating people.
Exceptional guests
Jaime Beriestain from Chile and Spain, Robert Majkut from Poland as well as Nelson Ruiz-Acal i Cate Högdah – a designer duo of Spanish and Swedish origin, all spoke on the topic of interior design. The question of what global perspective means for a designer was addressed by Marcus Fairs (Great Britain), founder and editor-in-chief of the Dezeen.com magazine, as well as designers Christophe Pillet (France) and Stefan Diez (Germany). The issue of conscious action was the subject of lectures delivered by Richarda Hutten (the Netherlands), Luca Nichetto (Italy) and David Trubridge (Great Britain).
Needless to say, such colorful characters as Karim Rashid (USA), Matteo Cibic (Italy), Matti Klenell (Sweden) and Daniel Svahn (Sweden) did not disappoint. For not only do they design exceptionally well but are also excellent speakers. Karim Rashid gave a talk about, among other things, why the designing process should always be innovative. Matteo Cibic, in turn, emphasized the importance of entertainment within design, reminding that along with sustainability the world needs a touch of magic.
Intense discussions
Besides these fascinating performances by the greats of design, during the Design Forum one could listen to engaging panel discussions which included but were not limited to ecodesign and boutique design. On this very stage the winner of SAW Interior of the Year competition was determined.
It was impossible to simply walk past the F hall, where the conference took place. Time and time again somebody (without any prior plans to attend the lectures) joined and stayed in the Design Forum audience captivated by the positive energy and emotional messages coming from the speakers. And that’s what it’s all about! Warsaw Home 2019 has proven that it was possible to create an event that would be remembered by many – not only for its intriguing exhibitors and stunning stands but also for the accompanying events representing the highest level of content.
