Wide format printers are invited to tap into expert knowledge illustrating how print can help them create stand out interior decoration, via a packed programme of sessions at the one-day Printeriors Conference that takes place at the Amsterdam RAI Exhibition Centre on 10 March, alongside FESPA Digital 2016.

An international line-up of designers and print specialists will take to the stage, with discussions focused around key themes: Trends for 2017; Standing out from the Crowd; Design Beyond Eyes; and How to Build your Brand.

Delegates will be able to benefit first-hand from the experience of speakers to gain insights into the growth and creative development of printing for interior decoration, organisers report.

Exclusive insight

“The Printeriors Conference will provide speciality printers with an unmissable opportunity to gain exclusive insight into the trends, applications and know-how for printed interior decoration. Our stellar line-up of large format printers and designers means that printers will be able to hear first-hand from those already working in this space,” commented Roz McGuinness, Divisional Director, FESPA.

“The networking event after the conference will also facilitate the coming together of the print and design communities to understand just what is possible and how they can benefit from working together in the interior space.”

Variety of topics and expertise  

Sessions will cover topics, including Designing for Interior Workspaces, where John Sulzmann, of Artworks Solutions, will present a series of interior work space case studies and illustrate how his business has evolved to support architects and designers.

In the session titled Vinyl applications in interior decoration, Bogdan Viorel, from MacTac, will look at the latest applications of vinyl in interior and exterior decoration using new innovative products. In Printed furniture session Matt and Laura Etkin-Budge, of Kitschiku, will discuss the inspiration behind their pattern and furniture ideas, and how they have been received by the design market.

FESPA 2015 Award winners Thijs Sepers and Vincent Post of TS Visuals will take a look at One step beyond printing, discussing how, as specialist large format printers, they have found solutions for applications on metal panels, glass, steel, wood and many other substrates, bringing the ideas of photographers, artists, interior designers and architects to life.

The Printeriors Conference runs alongside The Print Hotel event showcase featuring applications including decorated walls, floors, glazed and mirrored surfaces, fixtures, furniture, carpets, textiles and accessories, all produced using the latest decorative printing techniques.
