In its 13th year, the Feria PuroDiseño seeks to share and exhibit the amazing and varied works of over 350 local and regional designers from Latin America. Since 2001, this fair has created an unique space for talented designers to come together to showcase their works and ideas, and most importantly, to connect them with the general public. The designers’ disciplines span from a wide range of design-related industries, you’ll be able to find products in areas like clothing, textile, accessories, interior decorations, digital arts, lighting and so on. Moreover, like in previous years, the fair also has special thematic sections highlighting innovations and achievements in specific areas of design work:
– Arte Espacio: art exhibition of the most talented artists
– Eco Conectados: eco- and social-responsible designs
– La Selección: specially elected new designers representing different disciplines
– Joyeros en Acción: workshops given by a different jewel designer everyday. This year’s theme is wood.
– Puro Kids: a creative area for children between the age of 6 and 12 to participate
– 2do Concurso Nacional de Diseño de Calzado: The 10 finalists will exhibit their shoe designs

Sarmiento and Santa Fe) at Pabellón Amarillo (Yellow Pavillion) from Tuesday May 21 – Sunday May 26 1pm-10 pm. You can buy ticket at the door: AR$35 pp
