Where are tomorrow’s interior design trends shown first? Where can you meet star designers? Where can you get a chance for close encounters with new furniture and visions, and meet face-to-face with people in the industry? And also find the networks to order the furniture that will boost your business?
Trendsetters and creative newcomers will present the innovations for the coming year at imm cologne, the international interiors show in Cologne. No other trade fair provides such a comprehensive, concise and clearly structured overview of the international world of interior design.
The imm cologne isn’t just the very first interior design show of the year, it’s the first choice for international exhibitors and professional visitors from all over the world as well. This furnishing fair showcases inspiring interior design ideas for trendsetters and provides markets with new impetus. And the major innovation drivers, market leaders and brands will be there.
Formex started in 1960 and is held twice a year, in the beginning of January and in the end of August. We have about 800 exhibitors per fair with products within interior design, fashion and accessories etc. The fair brings together national and international buyers, agents, designers, producers and media from all over the interior design and gifts industry.

Each year, world-renowned designers and architects participate as keynote speakers and create inspiring feature exhibits. Located in the city of Toronto, Canada’s economic engine, IDS provides an annual catalyst for millions of dollars spent on design, and has positioned Toronto as a frontrunner in the global design scene.
IN/VISIBLE TALKS 2019
@ In/Visible Talks 2019 at The Pearl
In/Visible Talks celebrates the art of design and creativity.
The creative process isn’t always a linear one and we think there’s much to be gained by hearing how others have navigated the rich and variegated landscape of people, ideas, deadlines, and passion. Our mission is to build community through conversation about the process, inspiration, and challenges behind the creative practice.
Why we do it.
In/Visible Talks came from our own personal desire to keep learning, to stay inspired, and to celebrate our genuine love of design.
Working in the creative industry for years, we’ve attended countless conferences and seminars on design. But we found many to be surface-level, leaving us wanting for more. More community, more vulnerability, more truth. In/Visible Talks was founded as a platform to explore the creative practice through this lens.
We are LOGIN – the largest and probably the boldest innovation festival in the Baltics. When we started back in 2007, innovation meant technology, but this has expanded like mad. So have we. Today, innovation is an ingenious mix of everything, but we concentrate on three dominant elements and the magic that happens blending them together. It’s TECHNOLOGY, CREATIVITY, BUSINESS. And we are crazy about them all.
Over 6,000 game-changers gather every year to celebrate innovation and digital culture. We welcome all the competent founders, respected business experts, slick trendsetters, bold creatives, brainy techies – everyone who is forward-thinking. We thrive to stimulate all sorts of collaborations and dig deeper into the most relevant issues.
In 2019, we dive deeply into this world giving you the the most complete context of what’s happening around, taking you out of a box and inspiring to be a bold trailblazer yourself. We not only give away awards for the best Internet projects, but also party as mad during LOGOUT. And we invite you to join us!
