Quite conservative British furniture industry requires some input, that’s why “DESIGN LITHUANIA” expositions are presented there in London not for the first time.

National display of Lithuanian design recently could be seen in Minsk (Belarus), Brussels (Belgium), Riga (Latvia), Helsinky (Finland) and Cannes (France).
