Introduction to international buyers after 3 years of product development.
SPOGA+GAFA 2024
During the international trade fair Spoga+Gafa 2024, a special new chapter was introduced: the launch of the “Designed by Rick Triest” collection. On the exhibition platform in Cologne, Ter Steege presented this new line to a global audience of buyers, retailers, and professionals from the lifestyle, gift, and pottery industries.
Spogá+Gafa is known as the world's largest trade fair within the garden, lifestyle, and outdoor living segment. Every year, the event attracts tens of thousands of visitors and an impressive number of exhibitors, making it the place where new collections and trends are introduced and international connections are made.
With the introduction of the “Designed by Rick Triest” collection, Ter Steege further expands its portfolio, alongside the already successful “Designed by Lammie” line. The Rick Triest collection distinguishes itself through a powerful visual style, in which color, emotion, and recognizable shapes come together. This signature has been translated into a versatile product line that perfectly aligns with the current demand for characterful and accessible design products.
The collection truly came to life during the presentation at the Ter Steege stand. Thanks to the combination of artistic appeal and commercial applicability, the line immediately captured the attention of international visitors. The products bridge the gap between art and everyday use, where design is not only visible but also tangible in every item.
The launch during Spoga+Gafa marks a significant moment in the international rollout of the collection. Following this introduction, the “Designed by Rick Triest” line is finding its way to various markets worldwide, where lifestyle, interior design, and experience converge.
This step underscores the growing role of art within the design industry. By collaborating with an artist like Rick Triest, a collection is created that distinguishes itself through authenticity and recognizability, while simultaneously responding to the international demand for innovative concepts.
