Informa Markets’ interior brands trade fair Decorex attracted more than 12,000 visitors to its busy show floor in Olympia London, 8-11 October. New collections were unveiled and visitors were able to get hands-on with their designs.
Sam Fisher, event director, said: “Seeing the design community come together to experience Decorex is always something to celebrate. We are delighted to have welcomed so many engaged and enthusiastic visitors, who have all helped make Decorex 2022 such a successful event.”
The show theatres were popular on all four days as visitors came to learn from the experts and participated in Q&A sessions. Taking place in its new Upstairs at Decorex location, the programme welcomed luminaries from across the design world, delving into themes such as Emotion and Design, Sustainability and Growing Your Business.
The VIP Lounge at Decorex hosted a talk from Roger Saul, the founder of iconic fashion brand Mulberry, who delved into the Mulberry archives to share anecdotes from his career, discussing all things fashion and interiors.
Robbie Llewelyn, director at exhibitor Bert Frank, said: “This year’s show has been extremely well organised and very well attended. Decorex is synonymous with great design and we’ve been impressed by not only the quality of attendees but also by the standard of this year’s exhibitors. Decorex 2022 has been a great showcase for Bert Frank: we’ve had so many people visit and enjoy our Tree of Light’ installation in the entrance, and our nearby stand has proven very popular, attracting a lot of new as well as familiar faces – we couldn’t be more pleased.”
Decorex will be back from 8-11 October 2023 at Olympia, London. Drone footage of Decorex 2022 can be viewed here.
