Turnstyle Designs – Stand B35
Since 1992, Turnstyle Designs has been a leader in providing high-end hardware solutions for a wide range of projects, including prime residential, boutique hospitality, and super yacht applications. Turnstyle Designs distinguishes itself through its steadfast dedication to crafting each item by hand in North Devon, England. Whether it's the intricate craftsmanship of hand-stitched leather or the precise hand-hammering of solid brass, every element undergoes a rigorous process, with each item traversing through a minimum of eight pairs of skilled hands before meeting its perfect door. What they will be presenting is still a secret... And we can't wait for you to see!
YesColours – Colour Cafe
YesColours, an acclaimed sustainable paint brand that also provides design services, has garnered recognition for its commitment to sustainability and innovation. Their mission revolves around minimizing paint waste and fostering personal well-being, creativity, and inclusivity, making a significant impact on the interior design sector. As a proud holder of the Made in Britain certification, their inventive paints and eco-friendly packaging play a vital role in combatting the staggering 55 million tonnes of paint waste that ends up in landfills each year.
With a focus on the transformative power of colour in interior and product design, YesColours is excited to occupy the venue's most extensive area, "The Colour Café by YesColours." This immersive experience asks visitors to indulge in what can only be described as a vibrant museum of exuberant hues. The Colour Café serves as a celebration of the significance of colour in design, touching on its intersections with science, psychology, and neuroscience. A must-visit!
Armac Martin - B26
For nearly a century, Armac Martin, a family business spanning four generations, has been at the forefront of crafting luxury brass hardware. Established in 1929, their reputation is built on a legacy of exceptional design and meticulous attention to detail. Over the years, the company has transformed from its roots as a furniture fittings manufacturer into a globally renowned brand in the luxury interiors industry. While we can't unveil (yet!) what we know, we'll give you a clue... Check out their new collections page – often!
Cameron Design House and Empty State - C32
Cameron Design House specialises in sculptural, custom-made chandeliers for commercial and high end residential clients. It was first founded by Ian Cameron in 2014, and has since developed into an international brand recognised across the globe for quality and design.
In 2021, the team behind Cameron Design House noticed the lack of configurable modular pendants in the market, and decided to use their knowledge and experience to bring Empty State to life.
Cameron Design House will be unveiling Kupoli, their debut statement furniture collection, alongside the latest pieces from their iconic lighting collection. Cameron Design House will also be transforming Decorex's VIP Bar Le Boudoir, in collaboration with Designed by Woulfe with their sculptural lighting pieces.
And if exquisitely crafted furniture was not enough, Cameron Design House will also be presenting the Lohja: Leather Edition in partnership with Edelman. This special edition stands as a testament to the seamless blend of artistic vision and masterful craftsmanship, offering a showcase of the creative passion and unwavering commitment shared by Cameron Design House and Edelman.
Croft – C20
Croft stands as a prominent British producer of high-end architectural hardware. With roots tracing back to 1868, they maintain their status as a family-owned enterprise. They take great pride in crafting, manufacturing, and meticulously hand-finishing their products within the heart of England. At Decorex 2023, Croft will launch four brand-new lever handles. In addition to this, they will also be showcasing a vast array of products from their portfolio, which includes their Collections, window fittings, entrance door furniture, lever handles, knobs, and their cabinet collection.
Artisans of Devizes – C66
Artisans of Devizes is the premier destination for luxury natural stone and ceramic tiles. Their predilection for quality and beauty can be seen in everything they do, and this year's launch will only propel them further down this path. As you might be able to see from the image below, we're talking about their incredible new terrazzo collection. First popularised during the Renaissance, terrazzo tiles have never lost their natural yet colourful appeal. As the birthplace of modern terrazzo, Artisans of Devizes have named the colours of their Vinci Real Terrazzo range after famous areas and landmarks in Venice. Vinci is made from recycled and waste marble materials, making it as sustainable as it is beautiful. Don't miss out on their stand!
