Decorex Africa, one of the most anticipated events on the African design calendar, made a stunning return to Cape Town in 2025. Running from 5 to 8 June at the Cape Town International Convention Centre (CTICC), the renowned exhibition welcomed over 250 exhibitors, showcasing the best in design and offering an exciting exploration of how the way we live is changing.
A Vision of 'The Future of Living'
Under the theme The Future of Living, Decorex Cape Town 2025 provided a unique opportunity to see how African designers are experimenting with cutting-edge technology and merging tradition with innovation. Visitors were treated to displays of smart living spaces that seamlessly blend technological wizardry with timeless craftsmanship. This year’s show, under the guidance of newly appointed Creative Directors Alan Hayward and Garreth van Niekerk, explored the boundaries of African design with engaging features and thought-provoking pavilions that answered big questions about the future of humanity.
From groundbreaking furniture designs to the latest in technological advancements, Decorex Cape Town was not just an exhibition - it was a space for visionaries to connect and collaborate, launching new ideas and redefining the future of living spaces.
A Celebration of Creativity and Innovation
For over three decades, Decorex Africa has served as a catalyst for creative evolution. Established in 1994, the event has consistently pushed the boundaries of what design can achieve, offering a platform for both established and emerging talents to showcase their work. This year, the exhibition highlights how design is not just about aesthetics but is integral to shaping the spaces and lives of tomorrow.
Attendees are encouraged to not just observe the future but to actively shape it, as they engage with a community of designers, creators, and innovators in a city long celebrated for its creative excellence.
