Koelnmesse goes to Moscow

From 2013 the German trade fair company Koelnmesse intends to organise a furniture fair of international quality in Moscow under the name of Rooms Moscow. It will be staged in cooperation with Media Globa Krokus (MGK), the company organising the Moscow International Furniture Show. As Gerald Böse, chairman of the Koelnmesse management board, explained: “This will involve bringing in the furnishing segments from the ranges in our globally leading fairs IMM Cologne, Living Kitchen, Orgatec, Spoga+Gafa and Interzum.” The exhibition is also expected to provide an overview of spatial design and include the areas of interior finishing, flooring, walls, ceilings and lighting, plus bathrooms and spas. It is being planned as an annual event within the Moscow International Furniture fair.
