FORMEX

Situado dentro dos limites elegantes de Stockholmsmässan, o Formex atrai aficionados por design e estética de interiores de todo o mundo. Desde sua criação em 1960, a Formex evoluiu para um farol de criatividade, inspirando-se em seu homônimo — uma fusão de “Forma” e “Exposição” — que resume sua dedicação à excelência em design.

Duas vezes por ano, Estocolmo organiza essa extravagância semestral, apresentando as últimas tendências em decoração de interiores, design, iguarias gourmet, produtos infantis, moda e acessórios. Em seu cerne está a celebração do estilo de vida escandinavo, onde a sustentabilidade e a inovação convergem perfeitamente com a decoração da casa e os itens para presentes. A

Formex oferece um caleidoscópio de ofertas, desde luxuosos itens essenciais para banho e bem-estar até cerâmicas requintadas, tecidos e móveis personalizados. Produtos orgânicos e de comércio justo encontram seu nicho ao lado de uma zona dedicada adornada com roupas infantis extravagantes, brinquedos e companheiros fofinhos.

Um farol em meio ao cenário do design, a Formex orgulhosamente concede o Prêmio de Sustentabilidade a empresas e designers visionários comprometidos com práticas ecologicamente corretas. Este prêmio ressalta o firme compromisso da feira com a gestão ambiental e o desenvolvimento sustentável, ressoando profundamente na comunidade de design.

Além de seu fascínio estético, a Formex serve como um ponto de encontro fundamental para as partes interessadas do setor, de designers e fabricantes de interiores a especialistas em mídia e compradores globais. Aqui, os corredores fervilham com a troca de ideias e a criação de parcerias, tornando-o um centro indispensável para networking e comércio.

Consagrado nos amplos salões de Stockholmsmässan, o Formex se desenrola em um cenário de grandeza arquitetônica e comodidades modernas. Sua localização privilegiada garante fácil acesso para entusiastas locais e visitantes internacionais, consolidando Stockholmsmässan como o local por excelência para este ilustre encontro.

À medida que a Formex continua evoluindo, ela permanece firme em sua missão de combinar a tradição nórdica com a inovação de ponta. Cada edição promete não apenas uma exibição de produtos, mas uma viagem imersiva pela alma do design escandinavo, uma prova do artesanato, da criatividade e do fascínio duradouro da elegância funcional.

Em essência, a Formex transcende os limites de uma mera feira comercial. É uma prova do apelo atemporal do design escandinavo, uma tapeçaria tecida com fios de sustentabilidade, inovação e riqueza cultural. À medida que os visitantes atravessam seus reinos, eles não são apenas espectadores, mas participantes de um diálogo vibrante que molda o futuro do design e da vida. Formex: onde a beleza encontra o propósito e onde a inspiração encontra sua expressão mais verdadeira

These trends not only reflect consumer demand but also point toward the values that Scandinavian design continues to promote—functionality, beauty, and sustainability.

More Than a Tradeshow: An Arena for Learning and Exchange
