Furniture Village announced as headline sponsor of 2025 New Furniture Makers exhibition

We are delighted to announce that leading UK retailer Furniture Village has signed on as the headline sponsor of the 2025 New Furniture Makers exhibition.

Organised by The Furniture Makers’ Company, the New Furniture Makers exhibition – formerly Young Furniture Makers exhibition – has a proud legacy of championing emerging talent in the UK’s design and manufacturing sectors. The 2025 edition will take place on Wednesday 29 October across two City venues – Furniture Makers’ Hall and the Dutch Church at Austin Friars, London.

The exhibition provides an invaluable platform for aspiring furniture designers and makers to showcase their work to an audience of industry professionals, employers, and fellow creatives. Participants benefit from enhanced visibility, constructive feedback, and the opportunity to forge lasting connections within the sector.

A highlight of the event will be the presentation of a series of awards recognising excellence in various disciplines. These include the Bespoke Award, Design Award, Textiles Award, and Apprentice Award, each celebrating innovation, craftsmanship, and the creative integration of materials.

Charlie Harrison, managing director at Furniture Village, said: “Supporting the next generation is a responsibility we take seriously at Furniture Village. We’re proud to be the headline sponsor of the New Furniture Makers exhibition, an exciting initiative that gives young designers and makers the recognition and exposure they deserve. We look forward to celebrating their creativity and craftsmanship.”
