WORLDS CONNECTED IN THE HABITAT

For designers and interior designers, the Yecla exhibition centre becomes a fundamental space to find new ideas, materials and novelties, in the same way that for the event the view of these professionals embellishes and makes the spaces more attractive.

This symbiosis goes far beyond the exhibition centre and is linked to the FMY’s annual commitment to the habitat, a commitment also endorsed by CODID-RM.

It is in this desire to generate hospitality in the world of hosts that hoteliers, architects, interior designers, decorators and opinion leaders come into play, with the exhibiting firms promoting comfort worldwide with their contract installations.
