"It's that time of the year". That time of the year when the air of international design blows over the Clerkenwell borough in the heart of London, even livelier and fresher.
From 23 to 25 May, the area's showrooms and furniture stores will welcome professionals and enthusiasts from all over the world, bringing Clerkenwell Design Week to life.
This includes the Caesar London Urban Lab, located at 17-18 Great Sutton Street, the most dynamic street of the British venue. Renovated for the occasion, Urban Lab will host visitors and special guests, offering a rich calendar of events and workshops, all in line with Ceramiche Caesar's green commitment. In particular, the spotlight will be on the theme of sustainable cities and the commitment the Fiorano Modenese-based company makes every day to reduce the environmental impact of its products.
The event will also be an opportunity to present Iconica, the latest collection from Caesar, which has so much that is iconic in addition to its name.
Starting with the original inspiration. Caesar captures the evergreen beauty of travertine and reinterprets it in a ceramic way; with balance, it revisits its graphics and colours, shaping a versatile and cosmopolitan design tool.
