In our start-up period in 2003 we were fortunate to have been discovered by Ulla Diekmann, the trend spotter of Messe Frankfurt (Frankfurt Trade Fair), and to be invited as the support act of the talent show's exhibition at Messe Frankfurt throughout the years. For more than 12 years Messe Frankfurt's aid program, Talents, provides a free platform for designers at the beginning of their careers to present their work and designs. At the world's leading trade fair, Ambiente/Tendence manufacturers, buyers, journalists and designers gather, which offers a perfect opportunity to socialize and discuss new ideas, perspectives and concepts. Last year was very special for us. Throughout the course of the special exhibition, Talents 10+1, we were elected one of the ten most successful young designers out of a pool of more than 700 designers of 11 years of “Talents”. Therefore, we want to thank Ulla Diekmann and Nicolette Naumann, Vice President of Ambiente/Tendence, for their support.
