We're reflecting back on a successful inaugural edition of #DesignMumbai. It truly was a show to remember – featuring cutting-edge design and innovation from brands based in India and beyond to the Design Mumbai Exchange talks programme, which drew renowned architects, designers and cultural commentators from across the globe. “We're thrilled and overwhelmed by the positive response we've received from our exhibitors, visitors, our media attendees and the speakers who took part in our Design Mumbai Exchange talks programme. We cannot express enough gratitude to our supporters and partners," explain Design Mumbai founders Piyush Suri, Ian Rudge and Michael Dynan. "There was a clear gap in the global design calendar for a truly international show in India, and our mission was to fill it with a highly curated yet commercially focused event produced to the highest quality that is genuinely useful to the design and architecture trade in the region. We feel we have achieved this in the show’s first edition and look forward to driving even more impact and connection in 2025.”

Huge congratulations to LOCO Design India – the winner of the Design Mumbai Selects Best Stand Award 2024! The Design Mumbai Selects jury – formed of Ridhi Kale (Editor of India Today Home), industrial designer Richard Hutten (Richard Hutten Studio BV) and Carolyn Larkin (Founding Director of Caro Communications) and Amit Gupta (Editor-in-Chief of STIR) – chose the Loco Design stand for its "attention to detail and prioritisation of quality,” according to Richard Hutten. For the inaugural edition of Design Mumbai, Loco Design presented Palodia, a capsule collection of conceptual furniture developed in collaboration with global architecture studio UHA. “Palodia is a meaningful intersection of art, architecture and design. It translates an architectural project of UHA’s into a sculptural model, and further develops the narrative to produce limited edition design collectibles range for any artistically sensitive interior space," commented Amit Gupta. "The collection reinforces Design Mumbai’s curatorial positioning, giving a platform to an initiative that blends art, craft and technology seamlessly.” A high standard was delivered by all Design Mumbai Exhibitors for our inaugural edition – so we want to send a huge thank you to all!
