For press and VIPs both Lucia and Nigel will be hosting curated tours highlighting must- see stands at the show. Nigel Coats says:” Having watched and worked with Decorex over the past few years, I’m convinced it is the must show for anyone involved in interiors at the top end. Encyclopedic in its quality and scope, the show is a unique resource. That’s why everyone goes.
