This time it will be held from March 11 to 14 in Es Baluart. In addition, in this edition the exhibition will have more participants than in the previous fair. The idea is a local designers collaborate with companies that produce fabric, glass, ceramics, lighting, furniture, etc.

The IDI (Business Innovation Institute of the Balearic Islands) seeks recognition of local production. Trades with an identity sign from Mallorca, whose work begins and ends at home. Preserve the essence, reinterpreted under the creative gaze of each designer.

To be launched at the LONDON DESIGN FAIR, we have created new furniture collection, together with interior designer Tomas Lopez Amat. These unique pieces capture the essence and tradition that have been driving our work since 1854. Our Mediterranean roots and history are pivotal in everything we do.

Ikat fabrics are the centre piece of this furniture collection, where Ikat reaches its fullest potential. Tomas Lopez Amat has designed an outstanding collection inspired by the ancient natural stone walls from Mallorca; an art as old as weaving.

These pieces are the result of both research and innovation applied to fabrics, that you will notice in the finishing of the tables surface, for instance. The result is a unique balance of craftsmanship and design, where tradition meets innovation.
