Well there may be 159 exhibitors from 29 countries but half of them are Dutch, Belgian or Nordic and a quarter is English Saint Martins graduates. The final quarter is made up of those Mediterranean kids who dress as though they were in Eindhoven. In the midst of this Teutonic party however, don’t miss out on italian Plusdesign, obviously, African design from Ebano, again at Via Ventura 6, and the curious presence in Via Oslavia of two artists of such calibre as Goldschmied & Chiari, the charming Finns from Noni and NO SAUNA and the extraordinary inventors of the German sauna/cabin, Felix Tarantik and Tony Egger.
