Promotion: long-running Finnish design fair Habitare will take place in Helsinki in September along with its returning trade platform Habitare Pro.
Running for more than 50 years, Habitare is Finland's leading design fair and live creative event, providing a platform for the Nordic nation's designers and brands.
The event will curate the latest furniture, lighting and accessories, as well as showcase material innovation.
Habitare is a trade show that takes place each September
The fair is now appealing to more international visitors as part of a drive to boost Finland's profile as a design destination.
"Finland, which was just crowned the happiest country in the world, is a hidden gem of the Nordics. Design is in the DNA of every Finn and an appreciation for nature, craftsmanship and design quality runs deep, as evident in the architecture of Finnish homes,? said Habitare. Last year, as many trade fairs sought to evolve in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic, Habitare relaunched Habitare Pro with a new initiative and direction.
A trade and business-to-business platform, Habitare Pro is a reimagining of the traditional design trade fair format. It has been revived for 2024 following its successful debut last year.
Habitare Pro features interactive workshops intended to stimulate meetings, questions and conversations. Networking events are also held in the space, which includes a central bar and meeting lounge.
