Decorex International

The annual exhibition in the gardens of Chelsea's Royal Hospital, London put together by Decorex International is an event that all interiors designers attend. Held from 25th to 28th September 2011, exhibitors are drawn from around the country and many from overseas, in the knowledge that this is the place to see and be seen. This trade only exhibition is open to the public on Tuesday, 27th September between 3 p.m. and 7 p.m. and it is the ideal place to see new designs and collections.

The company's website has been extended to include DecorSearch, a searchable database of products for the home, from audio visual equipment to carpets and tableware. Search the database by category. Once chosen, you will be presented with a list of companies and images of some of their products. The results can sometimes be disappointing, with little choice offered. If you are surfing in the comfort of your own home, does it really matter? A couple of clicks and you will find someone else who has just what you need. It certainly beats thrashing the pavements.

If you do find what you are looking for, you can place an enquiry online direct to the company. You can also apply for trade accounts.

Decorex also runs the Hotel@Decorex, a very successful exhibition for the contract side of interior decoration.
