Overall the show was very well received by the public as well as the exhibitors. From walking through our entrance, beautifully designed by the Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University (NMMU) students, visitors could walk along a great selection of décor designs, interiors, slick bathroom and kitchen options that further led you to gourmet food treats and if you were lucky in seeing Gino Fabbri in the AV Design Gourmet Lounge, you would have definitely enjoyed a proper laugh as well.
