Moooi sails into London

After opening showrooms in Antwerp and Milan earlier in the year the Moooi crew is now ready to sail to the UK, one of the company’s leading markets, a timely arrival to coincide with the capital’s celebrations for the London Design Festival.
 
The World of Moooi will be revealed to London under the creative direction of designer and co-founder Marcel Wanders. The new canal side residence will be located at The Dock’s distinguished ‘White Building’, a Grade II listed stucco house dating back to the late 1900s.
 
Joining Moooi in the 250m² ground floor space, is Dutch resin flooring specialist Senso, who will be marking this event with the international debut of a unique range of flooring designed by Marcel Wanders, with a print true to the style of Wanders’ ‘new classics’.
 
With 75% of Moooi’s UK turnover generated within the contract market, both Moooi and Senso share a like-minded approach to creative and innovative business. Through their combined energy and vision the London showroom is set to become a user-friendly environment for the nation’s architectural and design industry. It will be an inspiring design hub – a place to nurture new relationships for both brands whilst also maintaining Moooi’s existing British friendships.
 
“Moooi is just in the beginning stages in London, to grow further we need the visibility of the product that will allow the team to work more closely with our existing and potential clients,” explains Casper Vissers, Moooi CEO.
 
The permanent showroom will house Moooi’s design icons in coexistence with the new products launched at the Salone del Mobile 2010 in Milan.
