COLLECTIBLE
The leading international fair dedicated exclusively to 21st-century collectible design. Founded in Brussels in 2018, COLLECTIBLE has helped define and advance the field through a rigorous curatorial framework, international outlook and strong artistic direction. Across nine editions in Brussels and a third New York edition in 2026, the fair has grown into a major international platform, occupying six floors of the landmark Vanderborght Building in Brussels and 35,000 sq ft in Lower Manhattan. Bringing together galleries, designers, collectors, institutions, architects and cultural leaders, each edition combines ambitious presentations, commissions and collaborations with sustained commercial exchange. Its expansion across Europe and the United States demonstrates the ability to translate a distinctive cultural vision across cities and markets. Internationally acclaimed, COLLECTIBLE has been described by the Financial Times as “a firm fixture in the calendar” while Architectural Digest positioned it as the fair where “the best of contemporary design convenes.”
DESIGN BIENNALE ROTTERDAM
A city-wide biennale exploring the role of contemporary design through exhibitions, public programming and critical discourse. Initiated and co-founded by Liv Vaisberg, Design Biennale Rotterdam was developed to position the city as a leading centre for contemporary design while fostering dialogue between local communities and international practitioners. Its inaugural edition brought together more than 250 designers across 19 venues, transforming museums, galleries and unexpected urban spaces throughout Rotterdam into a connected cultural programme. Welcoming 5,500 visitors, the biennale attracted an international audience of curators, collectors, institutions and design professionals while creating new encounters between the city and its creative communities. It received widespread coverage in NRC, Monocle, Dezeen and Wallpaper*, which described Rotterdam’s transformation from “underdog to design capital,” establishing the biennale as a significant new platform for contemporary design and cultural exchange.
