On the occasion of its launch, Adorno has produced an online version of the renowned design fair from São Paulo, which took place from August 9th to 14th at São Paulo’s Jockey Club. As the fair’s official digital partner, ADORNO now hosts a 360-degree virtual tour of the global exhibition, enabling design enthusiasts from around the world to visit Brazil’s leading presentation of collectible design from the comfort of their own home — and then to acquire the presented pieces and have them delivered to their doorstep.
During the M.A.D.E fair, Adorno also held a pre-launch event to unveil the platform’s visions and goals for an international audience, and hosted its very first international curator session, featuring Waldick Jatoba and Bruno Simoes (São Paulo), Jorn Konijn (Amsterdam), Elien Haentjens (Brussels), Martin Clausen and Kristian Snorre Andersen (Copenhagen).
