designboom marts are an unprecedented opportunity
to meet the young
avant-garde and become familiar with their work. the
group exhibitions
see international design professionals personally
presenting their wares
(prototypes and/or limited edition pieces) along with,
various-samples and
a portfolio. the designers have the opportunity to
meet and discuss with
customers, manufacturers, distributors, press and
museum curators
- verifying their designs and their packaging credentials.
mart visitors can
purchase intelligent, useful and quirky items for
a symbolic price, anywhere
between USD - 0 USD (or the equivalent depending
where the
event takes place - EURO, YEN, etc).
the designboom marts are truly
international - designers
come from over
40 countries, and partially cover the travel costs
through the sales that
they make. over the intense days of exhibiting and
socializing designers
have the chance to discuss their work with other like-minded
professionals
from different cultural backgrounds.
