Six leading regional companies - Hempel Paints, Creative Closets, Titolo Design and Build, Mobilio Uno, Viola Décor Contracting and National Paints - have been shortlisted for this year’s gulfInteriors awards in the 'Best Stand Design' category.

A major showcase for the region’s growing fit-out market, gulfInteriors is organised by Bahrain-based Hilal Conferences and Exhibitions (HCE) every year.

The three-day event held in Bahrain provides a unique opportunity for manufacturers, suppliers, retailers, designers, architects and contractors to showcase a wide range of luxurious, designer and innovative products for house, home, or commercial spaces.

Exhibitors and visitors also get to enjoy a range of networking opportunities to develop their creativity and experience the innovative atmosphere created by the annual gulfInteriors exhibition.

"In gulfInteriors, the exhibitor’s level of creativity and luxury is reflected in the design and the presentation of their products on their stands," remarked the exhibitions director Ahmed Suleiman.

"The shortlist of nominees for 2016 built stands with a high standard of unique creativity and quality that made strong statements for their corporate ID and their products," he stated.

"The overall quality of companies at gulfInteriors Exhibition 2016 reflects well on the GCC’s thriving interiors industry," he added.

The shortlisted firms' stand designs will be available online at gulfInteriors via Facebook for the public to cast their vote for their choice of best stand till September 30.

The winner will be honoured in October at the HCE 2017 Events Launch Reception.-TradeArabia News Service
