Fair details:
Date: May 10 – 11, 2006
Venue: Spazio Villa Erba, Cernobbio, Lake Como
Proposte: a market-and results-focused exhibition.
Every year it presents in a world preview the Made in Europe collections of furnishing fabrics and curtains.
Proposte is the fifth element
In the fifth century b.C., Greek philosopher Empedocles classified the constitutive elements as earth air water fire.
We have added Proposte to these four primal roots, to underline its excellent, necessary function and highlight its leading role within the textile industry. Proposte, the fifth element and Simply necessary are the two recurrent slogans for the 2006 communication.
The Proposte challenge Proposte 2005 was all about classic textiles transformed by modern design as well as a penchant for technical innovation in fibres, yarns and finishes. Well-aware of the leading role they play within the furnishing textile industry, the Proposte producers have been working for months to create topnotch collections that can beat all the competition.
