Decor + Design 2022 was a visual feast for the 8,000 design trade visitors who attended over four days. Making a triumphant return to the Melbourne Exhibition Centre in July, Australia’s No.1 Interiors Trade Event featured 150 exhibitors from across indoor and outdoor furniture, lighting, textiles and art.
LaForma Australia’s stand was one of the most popular draw-cards at the 2022 event, as they unveiled their Spring-Summer ’22 collections, for both indoor and out. Their stand was a magnet for visitors, with beautiful palettes of dusty pinks and pastels offset by dark, moody and monochrome colourways.

“Exhibiting at Decor + Design is a highlight on our event calendar,” says Jodie Hansen, National Sales Manager at LaForma. “We loved experiencing the first reactions to our new products and sharing the excitement and buzz with attendees.”
Traditionally in the wholesale-only space, LaForma also launched their new retail brand at Decor + Design, Kave Home Australia. This gives them a 360-degree offering in the furniture, design and decoration industry.
Kave Home is a selection of high-quality, sustainable furniture and homewares designed in Spain. The first Kave Home store has also now opened in Sydney’s Alexandria design district.

For the first time, Kave Home also dressed the stage for the prestigious Decor + Design Seminar Series, which featured star speakers including David Hicks, David Flack, Collette Dinnigan, Shaynna Blaze, Jamie Durie, Jason Grant, Anna Spiro and Adelaide Bragg.
The Kave Home team curated a stunning vignette as a backdrop for the speakers, with soft and textured textiles, beautiful lights and pastel tones.
