Strength! is the theme of Warsaw Home International Interior Design Fair’s third edition and it highlights Poland’s emerging position on the scene.

The 2018 edition of the Warsaw Home Fair will be its biggest yet, both in terms of number of exhibitors and exhibition space

With almost 800 exhibitors stretched out across 120,000 sq m of inspirational space, 2018’s Warsaw Home Fair, easily the biggest trade fair in Polish history, is just the latest mark on the ever-rising trajectory of the event.

In this, the event’s third year, Warsaw Home is five times bigger and will have six times as many exhibitors as two years ago (including names such as Vitra, Kartell and Magis). Growing from strength to strength, the event mimics the state of Poland’s design industry as a whole, with international exports reaching EUR 10 billion for 2017. Continued growth is thanks to a 6% export increase year on year, and is reflected by the Warsaw Home Fair’s 2018 theme, 'Strength!'

The Design Forum will feature guest speakers presenting their views on this year's theme: Strength!

The strength of the Polish design industry is epitomised by exhibitors at the Poland Design Festival, an accompanying event taking place during Warsaw Home. This is the place to meet inspiring young and talented Polish furniture and interior designers, setting the international stage alight with their products and concept work.

Design Forum is a series of lectures and debates at Warsaw Home, where special guests will present their view on Strength! in design. The following are highlights of the programme:
