Why Split?
Split is not only a famous tourist destination, but it has also become a strategic centre for investments in construction, design and urban transformation. The wider region, the Adriatic and the islands have been intensely developing tourist and residential projects which require sophisticated interior and exterior design solutions.
Architects, interior and exterior designers as well as end users, as the target visitor group, are highly appreciative of elegant, functional and exclusive solutions, yet this is the first time they will be able to participate in this type of event, without leaving Dalmatia.
Design District Split 2025 fills this void and lays the foundations for future development of the interior design scene. Encompassing visitors from Rijeka to Dubrovnik and the neighbouring Montenegro, the fair will be the key point for exchanging ideas, products and contacts for the entire South Adriatic.
