TESTIMONIALS

WHAT OUR VISITORS THOUGHT...    
 
“An amazing addition to the design events in London.” Michelle Ogundehin, Editor in Chief, ELLE Decoration UK
 
“The energy as I walked into Tent was so refreshing – it’s easy to become jaded and sceptical.” Deyan Sudjic, Director, The Design Museum
 
"Officially the coolest new event in the London calendar." Liz Hoggard, Journalist, Evening Standard
 
“The whole atmosphere at Tent London was good – it was just so refreshing to have a contrast between classic design and more cutting edge stuff. It was interesting to see the original designs from the likes of Eames and Saarinen in the Circa part of the show, and then Talent Zone with all the new designers’ work.” Andre Morral, Associate, TTSP

 

WHAT OUR EXHIBITORS THOUGHT...    
     
SUPERBRANDS EXHIBITOR    
“The exhibition was great – it really had a great vibe to it, which is exactly what Moooi, Extremis and Piet Boon Zone love about doing exhibitions that don’t conform to the usual ‘grid system’! All the companies were free to show themselves exactly how they wanted to.” Alison Stafford, UK representative for Moooi, Extremis and Piet Boon Zone
CIRCA EXHIBITORS    
“For me it was a good show with quite different people buying every day – earlier in the week people from design related professions – from the UK and abroad – and a variety of retail customers at the weekend. The show was friendly and relaxed which has helped to get new client relationships off to a similar start.” Sarah Potter
 
“It really was a great show! We sold well and got great contacts. The mix of old and new was terrific!” Jonathan Stephenson, Rocket
 
“Fabulous concept, fabulous fair, fabulous people, watch this space next year.” Gary De Sparham, De Parma
CONTENT EXHIBITORS
“We had a lot of interest in all our furniture. There were an exceptional number of visitors from the press and from the architectural and design community. This has given us a very large number of lines of interest to pursue over the coming weeks. It was also very good to see and to talk to so many members of the public visiting the show. It was a very vibrant and exciting weekend for Ercol.” Edward Tadros, Ercol
 
"As this was our first-ever exhibition, we didn't know what to expect, but once you enter the Truman brewery, you enter into what seems like a huge, like minded community. We made so many connections, contacts and friends and got a great deal of attention from both press and public, which has given us great confidence in what we are doing.” Trevor Vaugh, Vaugh|Shannon
 
“Thank you very much for a fantastic exhibition. I had a huge response and have been madly chasing everything up since! Everyone who was a part of it were simply lovely & extremely helpful, I couldn't have asked for more.” Kat Rowland, Ring Leader Urban Jewellery
 
“The show was a great success for us at Farm… I hope yourselves and your team enjoyed the week as much as we did, and once again thank you so much for allowing us to participate in such a wonderful event.” Giles Miller, Farm Designs
 
“Just a note much after the event to say thanks for the Tent experience. We really enjoyed getting ourselves out there in the public eye again and were really pleased with the overall mix of the show (lots of creative, but grown up enough to be taken seriously) and appreciated your no nonsense way of taking care of business.” Matt Kavanagh & Ashley Hall, Diplomat
 
Tent was Out of Office's first exhibition. It was a great experience and definitely a move forward for us. We met some lovely people - visitors, press and those who exhibited around us. It was an energetic and stress-free experience. We'd love to come back next year!
Michael Leung, Out of Office

TALENT ZONE EXHIBITORS

   
“Tent London was a great opportunity to make contact with senior members of the design world as well as the general public. It was an exciting mix of high profile designers alongside new talent which created a vibrant and inspirational atmosphere.” Jason Heap, Furniture designer - maker
 
“Thanks for everything. I really enjoyed being a part of the Talent Zone exhibition and showing my work. It was really well organized and I loved all the advertising and the graphics for the whole Tent London exhibition. From what I heard there was quiet a buzz around this show. … I’m sure it will become an unmissable part of the London Design week.” Melanie Graf, Product designer
 
“I participated in Tent London with an open mind, no preconceptions. It is a melting pot of different talents; I learned so much both from fellow exhibitors and visitors from the industry. I received a lot of feedback from people in the industry, which enabled me to have more ideas with regards to further developing my work.” Titi Abiola, Textile designer
 
I had a great time exhibiting at Talent Zone, being my first exhibition away from university it was great to be along side other people who have a passion for design. I met a lot of other designers from different disciplines who are now good contacts of mine! I couldnt have asked for better exposure.' Sarah Gibbons, Textile designer
 
“In regards to Tent London, it was definitely worth while taking part, lots of people left me their contact details, which has lead to further exposure and sales. It was great to talk to some of the more established designers…. I loved the exhibition, I thought the building was great, the variety of work was extensive and it left me feeling positive about my work and the future.” Emily Proctor, 3D designer
