For the First Time Ever – Formex Invites the Public to an Exclusive Trend Evening

On January 17, 2025, Formex takes a significant step by inviting the public to a unique trend evening for the first time in its history. On Friday evening, after the regular exhibition halls have closed, the entrance square will open for Public Hours. Visitors will have the opportunity to explore trends, gain inspiration, attend talks, and enjoy an exclusive viewing of Kristin "Krickelin" Lagerqvist’s exhibition. This initiative aims to open up and share unique aspects of Formex with the general public.

For several years, Formex has received requests from individuals eager to visit the fair, which is typically only open to industry professionals. Now, for the first time, the public is invited to experience the major trends of the upcoming spring and summer. By welcoming the public, Formex seeks to bring a new dimension of inclusivity and community, reflecting current interior design trends where openness and sharing are central themes.

“For us, it’s important to create a platform that inspires and engages. Formex is a business-to-business fair and an incredibly important marketplace for the interior design industry. Opening a part of the fair to the public for the first time is a natural step in being generous and sharing the magic of Formex with more people – we’re creating a Happy Place for everyone,” says Sonja Björk Ebert, Project Manager at Formex.
