Morphos | Furniture From Greece

Despite the economic recession which is a proven and well publicized fact, in Greece, people, companies and brands are on the lookout for new, creative ways to stand out, stand tall and recover from the shock of the crisis. Culturally, there is a lot of stuff going on – art, music, and theater and of course design are all very powerful communication tools among the nations. ''So, let’s talk in terms of design…. Furniture From Greece: It all sounds design to me!''
.

With the support of the German-Greek Chamber of Industry and Commerce and within the scope of the team effort ''Furniture From Greece,'' six major established Greek furniture companies will showcase (for the first time) their furniture designs at IMM Cologne – Living Interiors this year. The international furniture and decoration fair IMM Cologne is one of the most prestigious international furniture fairs as well as a central meeting place for exhibitors and decision-makers from all the world's important markets and will be held from Monday, January 16th – 22nd, 2012.  Established and well-reputed furniture companies such as Candia Strom, Corpus, De-Code, Elite Strom, Lattas and Morphos are facing the challenge of the economic crisis with a defiant ''YES'' and joining their forces under the communication brand ''Furniture From Greece'' in an attempt to introduce Greek Furniture to European and worldwide markets.

History has proved that in periods of recession, important opportunities and ventures are fashioned; therefore Furniture From Greece, as a brand, constitutes the first team effort on behalf of the country, in order to prove that Greece is still a promising country which has many things to offer. Internationally awarded Greek industrial designers have been assigned, by the companies, to create products that are ''distinguished for their design, excellent materials and authenticity where they intend to combine tradition with an innovative element and in this way form the so-called Greek Furniture.'' Their aim is to create international standard products and through their work, consolidate their position not only in Europe, bur globally. Moreover, through this venture, the brands aim at becoming widely known so as to reach a point where they are universally recognized and distinguished.

To get to know more about the companies and their products make sure that you stop by the Hall 5.2 of IMM Cologne and let them speak design to you!
