‘This show looks set to excite, challenge and amuse its small visitors with items that appeal to the kidult just as keenly.’ The Independent Magazine

‘We had a really good time on Sunday. I met lots of very interesting people and it was a great learning experience for the future.’ Nina Nagel, By Graziela.

‘I could not have asked for a better event to launch at - well managed, superbly targeted and fab marketing all round. It attracted a not only a diverse, eclectic and interesting group of exhibitors (well above the norm) but also I would say that each and every visitor was the 'right' type of visitor.’ Kay Mawer, Clothkits

‘Lots of like minded visitors and exhibitors makes this show a joy to support and be a part off.’ Petra Boase

‘I like the adhoc nature of the show. Improvisation and anarchy take precedent over over-styling, which is perfect for kids.’ Britt Leissler, Punch N Cuddle

‘Nice friendly atmosphere, a constant flow of visitors and impressive marketing on a national scale.’ Ophelia Button

‘I would just like to say thanks for the opportunity to be in Kids.Modern this year, it was a really inspiring show to be in and I was really happy with my space. All the feedback and comments I had about my products/stall were positive, and I would love to be involved next time round.’ Laela Barnard, Baby's Bunting

An exciting and innovative show bringing together the slickest furniture, fashion and collectables for children under one roof. Kids.Modern is about fun, thought-provoking design adults appreciate and kids remember for life. Appreciating that children not only deserve modern design but also understand it, Kids.Modern sources the UK, as well as Europe and Scandinavia to bring together the coolest products from 50 clever designers and producers.

Children deserve good design. Modern-minded parents love the latest in bright and clever design solutions for kids from celebrated international designers. Kids love playing with some of the incredible pieces for sale and enjoy some of the creative make and do stands from Ella Doran, Creative Charlie, Okido magazine and Big Bad Wolff. Make your own t-shirt, decorate your own tray, whip up an indian chief headdress and doodle to your hearts content.

Kids.Modern inspires you to imagine pieces already in your home with room style settings. Expect to see furniture and collectables downstairs in the arresting 60’s hall with its impressive floor to ceiling glass and concrete wall and view of the green playing fields beyond. Designers run along the upper gallery with more design, fashion and accessories housed in the Mezzanine overlooking the hall.

Outside expect a kid-friendly bbq, free show and plenty of free parking. West Dulwich BR, Dulwich Picture Gallery and Dulwich park are in walking distance with the celebrated Horniman Museum a 5 min drive/bus ride along the South Circular from the college.

Thornback and Peel kids, Graziela Preiser, Clothkits, Punch N Cuddle and Mimimyne have all launched at Kids.Modern
