"In order to convey the live experience virtually, especially for visitors who are unable to travel to the fair, we will be offering a selected cross-section of our most important Ambiente, Christmasworld and Creativeworld highlights. Of course, the trends developed for us by the style agency Bora.Herke.Palmisano - describing the groundbreaking designs - will not be missing. We are particularly pleased to have won over the renowned keynote speakers Gemma Giberti, Dimi Leivadas, Karim Rashid, Sebastian Holmbäck and Tai Elshorst-Delofski.
