This year’s event is, in fact, four shows rolled into one, as the fair incorporates not only the international furniture show (FIM), but lighting (FIAM), textiles (Textil Hogar) and decorating and accessories (DE>CO). Running alongside is the modern and contemporary art fair (FIART), so the interiors industry is well and truly covered.
