Qbiss One with ArtMe at the London Design Festival

Ljubljana, 26 September 2011 - Yesterday Trimo concluded their presentation of Qbiss One with ArtMe within the exhibition entitled Silent Revolutions - Contemporary Design in Slovenia at the London Design Festival. The exhibition, which showcases contemporary Slovene design since the Slovene Independence, was organised by the Slovene Museum of Architecture and Design. The Ambassador of the Republic of Slovenia to the United Kingdom Iztok Jarc, who officially opened the exhibition of contemporary Slovene design in London, pointed out that the exhibition was a result of close cooperation between partners from the Slovene public and private sectors. He also described the initiative for the international presentation of Slovene design as a project based on the proud tradition of the Slovene industry.

Slovenia already boasts several achievements and awards in international design circles, but according to the ambassador, with this exhibition it aims to gain greater recognition as a country of exceptional design. London, where design professionals from the entire world gather during the annual design festival, was a natural choice for the first stop on the long international journey to be made by the Silent Revolutions exhibition. There is no doubt that it will be successful as it has been already placed among the best events of the 2011 London Design Festival and has made it to the Icon Design Trail guide.

The Silent Revolutions exhibition organised by the Slovene Museum of Architecture and Design in cooperation with government institutions and featured companies, encompasses a selection of design projects that marked the first two decades of the existence of the Slovenian state. According to its curator Maja Vardjan, the exhibits display the passion of the individual designers, their drive, innovative development and high-quality production. The exhibition brings together products of large industries with their own labels and objects that are manufactured in small series by their designers. The exhibition does not focus only on the excellence of each individual product, but also on its status in the wider context of contemporary Slovene design.

The inclusion of the modular façade system 'Qbiss One' with the 'ArtMe' design, into the selection of displayed design pieces for the exhibition, Silent Revolutions, furthermore, proves that Trimo products are a synonym for innovation and high production quality, with a touch of artistic inspiration, which is the right answer to modern minimalism in architecture.
