Faro Group  has taken part for the first time in the 7th edition of Architect@Work France with the brands DRESSlight and Faro Barcelona.  It was held on October 9th and 10th at the Grande Halle de la Villette (Paris). Architect@Work is an exclusive trade show for professionals in the field of architecture which is held in 10 European countries and China.

Architect@Work’s unique concept sets it apart: each brand is offered an exhibition space in which it may display a careful product selection which has been previously approved by a committee of renowned architects. True to the spirit of the event, Faro Group  has presented two of its iconic products with its brands Faro Barcelona and DRESSlight in an interesting modular set. The product chosen DRESSlight was the luminaire Eter, a suspended light fixture designed by the internal team. The attendees greatly appreciated finding the products DRESSlight offers: handmade, exclusive and unique light fixtures.

Architect@Work has become a careful selection of the latest and most innovative products for architecture, creating a relaxing and stimulating environment for networking and the exchange of knowledge between manufacturers and architects. Proof of this is the results of the fair.  Vincent Baroni, the Export Director from Grupo Faro, commented that “during the two-day fair, there were over 300 qualified contacts attending and 98% of them were consultants.  This is an audience with which we want to have stronger links and to show what we have to offer”.

Architect meets innovations, the slogan for this year’s Architect@Work, has been the ideal setting for Faro Group  to announce its extensive catalogue of products and their technical office, a department which works closely with architects, interior designers and decorators in the development of custom lighting projects. The best guarantee of Grupo Faro’s projects are the more than 50 projects which can found in shops, hotels, restaurants, created in collaboration with prestigious architecture studios.

This first time was a very positive experience, both due to the predisposition and good will of the audience and the effective and fast networking which can take place at Architect@Work. We will be sure to attend again in future years.
