From January 19 to 25, 2009 again it’s time for one of the world’s major interior design fairs: imm cologne. It can be a boring event, as it is – of course – mainly a stock exchange for thousands of furniture dealers. And as you are running through the big halls at latest the 20th chair and the 30th sofa will make you feel tired.

It could be boring – wouldn’t there be [d3] design talents section where – as the name says – young design talents and design schools are showing their work. Right in the center of this section in hall 3.1 there’s another mentionable project: the online design magazine DESIGNSPOTTER presents 50 “fresh and wild” designers from over 16 countries in the world.

So come to Cologne in January – the imm week is one of the best times in the year to experience the city with furniture exhibition happenings on every corner and lots of parties.
