Rooms On View

Rooms on View, South Africas premier decor and design show, offers exclusive insight into the status of South African decor and design. It is South Africa's foremost bi-annual decorating show and is firmly established as the benchmark by which the South African decor industry is measured, both at home and abroad. The show has joined the ranks of other international decor fairs as a fixture in the diaries of decorators, buyers and tastemakers, the world over.

The international decorating world has been alerted to the potential here in South Africa, bringing even greater rewards for those creating and accessorising the private worlds in which we live at home. Rooms on View is devoted specifically to interior decoration, the design of furniture, ceramics, fabrics and other household items. You can expect to see cutting edge thinking in the world of design, incorporating local and international designers, lifestyle merchants, and the best new young names to watch in the future. The exhibition is a themed event. Room settings, from living rooms and dining rooms, to studies and bedrooms, will provide a tangible view of what is possible using the wide range of merchandise available to the decorating world and its pool of creative talent.

Rooms on View postponed its May 2012 exhibition due to the South African decor industry taking a substantial knock during the global recession in the past few years. The owner and Managing Director, Sumari Krige, believes that the industry is definitely on the up. Sumari and the organising team als o believe that the brand has become a household name and that the time has come to give the show a new identity and vision that not only benefits the exhibitor but also the general visiting public. The team are looking at re-launching the show in either Spring 2012 or definitely in May 2013 at the Sandton Convention Centre. Rooms on View's sponsors are Conde Nast House & Garden and Home Fabrics, and with the support of such market leaders, this ensures the continued high visibility of the show.
