Intimate fair of high-end Portuguese design furniture & crafts
LISBON by DESIGN is an annual fair showcasing a curated selection of high-end contemporary collectible craft and design made in Portugal.
The idea is to show exceptional pieces (most of them commissioned for the fair or to be seen for the first time at the fair) attracting and inspiring collectors, art consultant, interior designers, real estate developers, museum curators and a wider audience of beautiful objects and design enthusiasts.
The first edition was launched in 2021, followed by 2 successful editions in 2022 and 2023.
All editions took place in the intimate and exclusive setting of the Gomes Freire Palace in the heart of Lisbon.
The Fair is held in May during Arco Lisbon, an important and well attended International Contemporary Art Fair.
