Female Traces on tour.

In 2019 the Museum of Furniture Studies highlighted 60 female furniture designers in an exhibition and a seminar called Female Traces. We aimed to show women as creators of some of the most recognisable objects in the world of furniture, historically and today.  A part of the exhibition is now on tour. Between 5 February and 24 April the exhibition Female Traces will be shown at Rian designmuseum in Falkenberg.
