“We have exhibited at Surface Design Show for several years and 2024 was the best so far. It has been a great show for us, we have seen some incredible designers and architects and have doubled our leads from last year’s show.”
Megan Fehily
UK Sales Manager, Phillip Jeffries
“The 2024 Surface Design Show was a fantastic event for us, it was an ideal opportunity to connect with 1000s of leading interior designers and architects and showcase the beauty, sustainability and versatility of natural stone.”
Matt Robb
Digital Media Executive, Stone Federation Great Britain
“The team and I found the Surface Design Show hugely interesting; it gets better every year. With a focus on sustainable materials, new emerging processes and young entrepreneurs and artisans, we were able to make some great connections and build on our network. Stand out exhibitors were Stylib, Smile Plastics and CDUK.”
Dominic Coleman
Director, Kibre Studio
“Surface Design Show was amazing, it felt buoyant. Everybody had a sustainability story this year, and I’ve not seen that before, it feels like things have moved on. It’s the centre of the innovation as well as the marketing process.”
Mark Shaylor
Owner, Ape
“I visit every year and have long been an advocate and fan of the show. There is always new and interesting material use. It is ahead of a lot of the industry events when it comes to sustainable design practice and it is also a good place to visit and catch up with A&D.”
Mick Jordan
Editor, Works Magazine
“The diversity is unbelievable, the internationality of it is amazing. There is product variety, from bio-materials, textiles woven out of leaves, textiles made from recycled plastics, almost all of them have an element of sustainability, well-being or happiness attached to them.”
Jennifer Castoldi
Founder and CEO, Trendease International
“It's our 5th year at Surface Design Show, and it has always been good for us. It gets bigger and better every year. We get to meet the right clientele, and its an enjoyable 2 and a half days.”
