Interior Design Fair|: Decorex 2025 returns to Olympia London October 12 - 15

Decorex 2025 returns to Olympia London from 12–15 October, reaffirming its place as the premier event for luxury interiors, craftsmanship, and design innovation.

Organisers promise an inspiring showcase, bringing together the latest collections, immersive features, and thought-provoking discussions that make Decorex a must-attend for interior design professionals.

This year, more than 280 exhibitors will unveil cutting-edge collections from leading brands. Highlights include Homeplay’s Serengeti Living, which explores the seamless integration of technology into interiors; Castrads’ vintage-inspired radiators in collaboration with Soho Lighting and Hyde House; luxurious sofas from Sofas & Stuff; and Olive & Barr’s Shaker-inspired kitchens. Alongside these, hundreds of brands will present the finest in textiles, wallcoverings, lighting, accessories, furniture, flooring, and more.

The much celebrated Making Spaces feature returns with a fresh line-up of artisans demonstrating live craft techniques and sharing insights into the future of craft. It’s a vibrant celebration of creativity and provenance, featuring makers showcasing their skills in metal work, ceramics and textiles. 

'Mother Dearest' by Carl Fox - A London based artist who blends traditional techniques of marquetry and parquetry with modern aesthetics. His work often explores texture and pattern through meticulous craftsmanship.

From over 200 entries received, 14 artisans were selected by the Decorex 2025 Making Spaces Committee that hand-picked their favourite makers, providing the chosen artisans with a unique and exclusive opportunity to showcase their craft to Decorex’s interior design audience.

Each artisan will be demonstrating their craft live at Decorex, offering visitors a rare glimpse into the making process and the stories behind their work.  These exclusive one-hour sessions, led by talented artisans, offer visitors the chance to immerse themselves in hands-on creativity. Each workshop provides an interactive opportunity to learn directly from masters of their craft, all within a dedicated space.
