marro

A well known Italian illustrator, Federico Babina, has accepted a commission from Actiu. The Spanish company asked him to graphically reinterpret some of their office furniture. As a result of this collaboration abstract compositions direct attention from a piece of furniture to basic components of design: shapes, colours, textures and proportions.

The energy of Powiśle is a perfect background for one of a kind events and creative meetings. As an owner of three local showrooms we are pleased to be able to co-organise some of them. This time we celebrated the second birthday of WEDA, a creative production house founded by Ivan Vyrypaev and Karolina Gruszka. The event was attended by special guest Mikhail Baryshnikov.

ArchiWomen is a series of architecture/interiors/real estate events for women organised by eduArch. We had the pleasure of hosting this year's final event.

Artists seldom leave theatre but this time they opted for an experiment in which we were happy to participate. In the new Marro space in Powiśle we held a rehearsal of the play "Wasps" ("Osy") written and directed by Ivan Vyrypaev, starring: Magdalena Boczarska, Dariusz Chojnacki and Marcin Dorociński.

During Orgatec 2018 Vitra presented one of the largest exhibition spaces. It provoked questions regarding the purpose of such a large presentation and, above all, the future of office design. How will space be understood? What will be the role of architect and designer?

We have opened a new, third, Marro space in Powiśle. Browarna, Lipowa and Dobra represent different aspects of Marro: from commercial to educational, cultural and artistic. Representatives of architecture studios, worlds of culture, art and business, as well as special guests Giulio Cappellini and Jonas Pettersson, all took part in the opening.

This year's Warsaw Home Expo fair is over. Statistics of the third edition are promising: 120 000 square metres of the exhibiton space in 5 halls, 623 exhibitors and over 67 000 visitors (including 22 000 B2B visitors). Which brands were the most popular at our stand?
