Decorex once again promises visitors
something for everyone and all of it
unmissable. Bielle Bellingham, Decorex Africa’s Executive
Creative Director gives us up-to-date
information on where to
begin when planning your trip. She shareds
her tips for what’s new and now below, but her
best advice is to come back again and again to
take in everything - especially because there
are different live talks and demos each day.

partners Plascon, Samsung, Lexus and the City of
Cape Town, is set to be a knockout. Download the dedicated new Decorex app
from the App Store or Google Play Store to help
