CollectorsRdam
CollectorsRdam is a unique furniture and interior design fair that focuses on stylish European design. It takes place annually at the RDM Submarine Wharf (Onderzeebootloods) in Rotterdam, an impressive historical site that is bound to appeal to fans of the industrial style!
Exhibitors at the fair specialise in contemporary design and classic modern furniture. Get your hands on items created by renowned designers and brands such as Eames, Herman Miller and Pastoe.
And don't worry if you do impulse buy a huge sofa - there are also stands at the fair that specialise in transporting expensive furniture and can get it home for you!
Rotterdam: City of Design
Rotterdam is most famously a city of innovative and ground-breaking architecture. But this brings with it the need for equally revolutionary and stylish interiors to match the buildings' exteriors.
The result of this is that Rotterdam has a strong connection with modern interior design, with several museums dedicated to the subject, most notably the New Insitute (Nieuwe Instituut) and the unique Cube Houses (Kubuswoningen) with their specially designed interiors. This makes Rotterdam the perfect Dutch city to host these carefully curated stand-out pieces.
