Here are just some of the many great reasons to join the rest of the design community at Singapore Indesign on 4 October 2014.
June 26th, 2014
#1 The Design Event That’s Well-Designed If you’re going to see new products and brands – see them displayed well. Rather than cramming every kind of brand into a one-size-fits-all trade hall, we unite showrooms and pop-up spaces across Bras Basah, Dhoby Ghaut, River Valley and Tanjong Pagar, connected by design trails and our fleet of free hop-on/hop-off shuttle buses. #2 Fresh New European Designs
To name just a few: from Germany, we have manufacturer of inspirational kitchen systems, Bulthaup; elegant industrial lighting solutions from Waldmann Lighting; and a century of experience behind Wilkhahn’s award-winning workplace chairs and furnishings. From Belgium, the artistry of Kreon’s “purity of light” collections, and many more to be announced. See the full list here. #3 A Balance of Local And International Brands
We’ve curated the most exciting Singaporean design brands and companies, such as 25-year-strong furniture, lighting and accessories retailer XTRA, alongside global benchmark setters, such as the world’s largest designer and maker of carpet tiles, Contrac-Image/Interface. Stay tune for our announcement of local design brands on display. #4 Our Collaborative Installation Series, The Project
Do not miss seeing local architecture and design studios, artists and other creative teams join forces with our Exhibitors to create installations that respond to the theme “Future”. Previous years have seen everything from projections and visual illusions to sculpture and special builds, by studios as diverse as Geyer, Fuur Associates, Distillery and Elixr, to name just a few. #5 Visit Our Curated Takeover Of The Red Dot Design Museum
