| The three-day event, this year themed “Making a Difference”, will take place at the Shanghai Exhibition Center. 100% Design Shanghai and IHDD 2012 (International Home Décor & Design is China’s unique trade and sourcing platform for high-quality premium luxury home accessories and furnishings) confirm Shanghai D-Week Collaboration. Supporting by Shanghai D-Week, the organizers have assured that not only will there be a significant level of local content on show at 100% Design Shanghai 2012, but also that the exhibits will be of the highest caliber the country has to offer. Yan Mi, a member of the 100% Design Shanghai / IHDD 2012 panel, said, “Compared with five years ago, demand for original Chinese décor and design has seen a significant rise, thanks in large part to information globalization. It’s the protection of IPR and the mechanism for designers and brands to cooperate that still lag behind. This explains the undervaluing of Chinese design. Having said that, the overall development trend is very positive.” Ms. Yan added, “Over the last two years we’ve seen an increasing awareness of the “Designed-in-China” brand and of representing Chinese culture on the international stage. However, when compared to what happens in the international design community, the ability of local Chinese designers to set trends, and the functionality of local designs, are still below par. To raise their level of influence, Chinese designers must produce works of consistent quality and style. They must also remain sensitive to market trends and demand.” | ||
