The first virtual event of the design fair 'blickfang' happens from 10 to 13 April under the motto 'Stay at home. Discover good design.'

Blickfang is one of the most important traveling design fairs in the German language speaking countries Austria, Germany and Switzerland. Founded 1992 by Dieter Hofmann, the design fair extended its format for flattening the curve of the spread of the Covid-19 disease and organized in a sensational short time of 12 days a virtual edition where more than 200 exhibitors will present their design products and will be available to get in personal contact from 10 to 13 April via www.blickfang.live. It's announced that the website will be technically outfitted with live-chats, live-streams from the designers' ateliers and workshops and an online shop where items can be ordered directly.
