Vifa GU 2019, an exhibition on urban lifestyles and solutions for interior spaces, opened in HCM City on Thursday showcasing the latest interior and architecture trends and lifestyle and package solutions for interior spaces.
The first edition of the exhibition features 500 booths set up by nearly 100 enterprises in the wood processing, handicraft, architecture, real estate, fashion and food sectors.
To help visitors get a clear understanding of each interior trend, the organisers have divided the exhibition space into areas with distinct highlights.
They include the Eclectic pavilion and houses representing three different interior decoration trends, timeless, today and lab.
The exhibition will feature eight seminars, including on modular housing, modern housing trends and Italian design styles.
Nguyen Chanh Phuong, deputy chairman and general secretary of the Handicraft and Wood Industry Association of HCM City, said the event is organised on a completely different model from the association’s other exhibitions.
VIFA GU is a place for visitors to meet innovative companies and brands in the industry and get an overview of the ability to create Vietnamese living spaces.
It would also be a platform for businesses to enhance connections and complete the furniture trading eco-system, and property developers and investors can find suitable partners, he said.
Vifa GU is an important event for promoting wood and wooden products in the domestic market, which is worth over US$4 billion a year.
The exhibition, at the Saigon Exhibition and Convention Centre, will go on until Sunday. — VNS
