EcoDesign is an invitational exhibition, which consists of the views of distinguished design professionals and promising young designers, e.g. from remote work furniture, storage solutions for recyclable materials, multifunctional furniture, lighting, chairs, and the new use of the entirely wood-based particleboard. There are 34 works on display.

*For the first time, examples of the use of future fossil-free Zero particleboard, entirely wood-based particleboard for furniture and decoration, will be on display.
