FAD: Design market barcelona
By Charlotte Stace
The city’s FAD organisation brings us Design Market Barcelona to Poblenou just in time for the Christmas season.
Founded in 1903, Foment de les Arts i el Disseny (FAD) is Catalunya’s premier design institution whose mission is to foment Catalunya’s creative community and more broadly to explore design as the creative solution to humanity’s problems. The government-backed non-profit conducts its mission through its various member associations: ADI-FAD (industrial design), ADG-FAD (graphic design and visual communication), ARQUIN-FAD (architecture and interior design), A-FAD (art, craft and goldsmithing) and MODA-FAD (fashion).
This year’s market brings the city’s most avant-garde designers, artists, creators, new talents and artisans together under one roof. It returns as a reference fair for lovers of good design in the city, thanks to the careful selection of its exhibitors. If you’re on the lookout for a different and unique Christmas present for a loved one, then check out this fair.
