The May Design Series – One Great City, Four Great Shows: Excel London, 19-21 May 2013
The May Design Series is a major new date in the trade event calendar, completing the international design circuit to bring the best and most exciting new products and ideas to London for solid, commercial business in 2013.
Organised by UBM BE (United Business Media Built Environment), four co-located design events will serve the London-based interior design, property, architectural and retail communities who buy and specify for projects around the globe.
DX explores how the pioneers of design and technology are shaping the interiors in which we live, work, and play. DX will host interactive exhibition space alongside new commissions, installations and an events programme, exploring beauty and intelligence at the forefront of design.
INTERIORS LDN features the best of contemporary British and international design for furniture and interiors, for the mid to high-end market.
kbb LDN showcases design innovation in the kitchen, bedroom and bathroom industry and is the nucleus for the mid to high-end business community.
The ARC Show brings together the full spectrum of architectural, retail and commercial lighting disciplines to source the very best intelligent and creative lighting.
