From 17 to 19 September 2026<\/strong>, Amsterdam will host a new edition of GLUE \u2013 Connected by Design<\/strong>, the festival that has established itself in recent years as one of Europe\u2019s most compelling events dedicated to contemporary architecture and design. More than a traditional trade fair, GLUE is a city-wide design route<\/strong> connecting showrooms, design studios, galleries, creative workshops, and companies, transforming Amsterdam into an immersive journey through design culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 2026 edition, titled “Creating a Home,”<\/strong> will explore the meaning of contemporary living through exhibitions, installations, product presentations, and talks with leading designers and architects. Along the route, visitors will discover some of Amsterdam\u2019s most significant creative destinations, where design, craftsmanship, and innovation come together in one of the city’s most vibrant expressions of contemporary culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Listone Giordano Amsterdam: A Meeting Point for Design, Art, and Design Culture<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Among the highlights of the GLUE Design Route 2026<\/strong> is the Listone Giordano Amsterdam<\/strong> showroom, located at Keizersgracht 447A, 1017 DK Amsterdam<\/strong>, in the heart of the city’s iconic canal district. More than a showroom dedicated to premium wood surfaces, it has become a permanent platform for dialogue between architecture, interior design, art, and design culture, reflecting the vision that Listone Giordano has promoted for years through international initiatives, exhibitions, and collaborations with leading architects and designers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During GLUE Festival 2026<\/strong>, the showroom will offer visitors the opportunity not only to explore the latest Listone Giordano collections but also to discover a carefully curated selection of brands and creatives that interpret contemporary design through different yet complementary perspectives. The aim is to create an exhibition where materials, furniture, art, and research come together within a single design experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the featured exhibitors will be Functionals<\/strong>, the historic Dutch brand that has long been regarded as a benchmark in Dutch design. The company has built its identity around a philosophy of refined simplicity, where form and function achieve a sophisticated balance. Its collections range from furniture to accessories, always distinguished by exceptional craftsmanship, durable materials, and designs that integrate naturally into both residential and contract environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alongside industrial design, the exhibition will introduce a more artistic dimension through the works of Hans Oudendorp Sculpture<\/strong>. The Dutch artist’s sculptures explore the relationship between material, balance, and spatial perception, establishing a natural dialogue with contemporary architecture. Characterized by a powerful sculptural presence and a refined exploration of surfaces, his works are conceived not merely as decorative objects but as elements capable of transforming the perception of the surrounding space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
