Casa Decor 2015. 20 years setting trends

The largest event devoted to interior design, architecture, design and art in Europe, Casa Decor, celebrates its golden anniversary this year. The 50th edition of this fair is being held in the former Royal Wax Factory, a building with a neo-classic façade built in 1788 and which is located at Number 10, Calle de la Palma.

Casa Decor is an exclusive communication platform that brings together the three main vertices of the decoration sector: designers, commercial brands and the general public. Each edition attracts over 200 participating exhibitors, including professionals and firms, and is visited by over 35,000 people.

Two decades after opening its first home in Madrid?s Calle General Oráa, Casa Decor remains an essential reference within the world of decoration, design and architecture. Not only is it a social event, it is above all a platform from which to propel the best Spanish professionals, and launch the newest products and materials. Its formula? Quality, unity, consistency and professionalism.

In this special edition, a unique 2,600 m² building has been chosen, divided into four floors, basement and garage. Its interior has a wide range of bright, open-plan spaces in an excellent state of repair. A magnificent terrace on the upper floor and another with a balcony overlooking the street are the two additional spaces that complete the incredible potential of this building, which lends itself to decorative creativity.

What is Casa Decor?

Recognized as the most important and prestigious decoration exhibition in Europe, Casa Decor is an exclusive communication platform where the sector?s three main vertices meet: professionals, commercial brands and the

general public. A catwalk where interior, architecture and design professionals can show off not only their aesthetic proposal, but also their skill when it comes to work. A shop window open to the public, in which firms have the unique opportunity to showcase their products, be their materials or coatings, furniture, electronics or innovative building solutions.

How does Casa Decor work?

The project begins with locating an emblematic building in a distinguished area of the city, which is then refurbished by a group of interior, architect and landscape professionals. Also taking part in this event are artists, designers, art galleries and companies who wish to show their work and products to thousands of visitors who visit the event over a one-month period. The exhibition consists of two annual events. One in Madrid during May and June, and the other in Barcelona, in November and December.

Promoting singular and sustainable architecture

Along with the great platform that Casa Decor represents as a professional and commercial event, it has also developed an important role in recuperating buildings that are part of the cities? urban heritage, and revaluing their architectural richness through quality projects. Consequently, with every edition Casa Decor stimulates the real estate sector by promoting the building that houses the event and showing off the renovation project or sale. Moreover, Casa Decor was one of the first interiors exhibitions to manifest a clear concern for the environment, thereby strengthening the offer of ecological and sustainable construction products.
