One half of the Tangram team flew out once again to Milano for Salone del Mobile!  It was the 55th year of the world-renowned furniture exhibition which seemed to be as vibrant and inspiring as ever.  Sarah & Jenny take over Tangram Talk to share some personal highlights and the top trends of 2016...

Of the roughly 700 exhibitors at the Stockholm Furniture & Light Fair, 80% are Scandinavian making the event the largest meeting place for Scandinavian design.   From whiteboards to modular seating systems, the Scandi's have launched some very exciting new designs.  We've selected our highlights and categorised them into offices, hospitality and apartments.

Our portfolio seems to be continually expanding! But - we're not complaining.  While we try to keep our portfolio selective, it's impossible to ignore the quality and relevance of certain brands.  So, we welcome 3 new brands to Tangram, all with very different offerings.

The design world is forever evolving and keeping us guessing.  LDF '15 demonstrated this with the huge variety of exhibitions, open studios, pop-ups, trade shows and installations. In comparison, trends in the contemporary furniture and lighting industry tend to have a slightly longer life cycle; such as the use of metallics and marble.  We discuss some of the most apparent trends at this year's LDF...

Julian and Sarah headed south at the end of September for the annual London Design Festival.  Sarah takes over Tangram Talk to discuss this years highlights...

Amazing sights, products, installations, and lots and lots of people crammed into small spaces can only mean one thing – London Design Festival!  With over 300 events taking place across the city of London, it is impossible to do more than scratch the surface. Design Districts are a plenty; key for us were Design Junction, Clerkenwell and Brompton and within these three areas alone, we saw a vast array of beautiful furniture, lighting, accessories and some great installations too.

Vitra may be new to the Tangram offering, but the brand has been a spearhead within the design industry for more than 60 years.  Boasting collaborations with some of the most celebrated designers past & present, including Charles & Ray Eames and Antonio Citterio, Vitra have a portfolio that includes timeless classics and fresh new designs.

We're constantly reviewing the Tangram portfolio to ensure that our core principles are supported through the brands that we represent.  After our latest review we decided that there was room to expand our offering and have accepted invitations to become dealers for two great brands - the widely recognised Vitra and the Spanish independent editors, Santa & Cole.  Why these 2...?

Exciting new furniture pieces and designs have dominated much of our Salone del Mobile 2015 discussions so far.  Time for some new lighting designs to take the spotlight (sorry, couldn't resist...!)

Another year and another whirlwind 3 days in Milan for Salone del Mobile.  Sarah, our Contracts Director, notes that the fair was the usual hubbub of style, sunglasses and of course the very best in contemporary furniture and lighting!  There is lot's of exciting new contemporary contract furniture for the commercial environment but upon reflection it was arguably some of the best brands that pulled it out of the bag once again.
