Design Icons

In the first weekend of April, it’s time for the 9th edition of vintage furniture fair Design Icons: 75 professionals specialized in ‘mid-century design’ furniture and lighting gather in Amsterdam. The trade show is taking place as always on the North shore of the IJ-river, in the impressive venue of De Kromhouthal. The 40’s, 50’s, 60’s and 70’s are the years of the inspiring pioneers: Bertoia, Jacobsen, the Eames couple, Mies van der Rohe, Braakman, Panton and many others. The unique character of items that have a ‘story to tell’ has great attraction, as well as the superior quality.
