On the occasion of France Design Week, the platform Catawiki launches an online auction from September 9 to 18. It will present objects submitted by participating designers. An opportunity to get new visibility for the event.
The 3rd edition of France Design Week will take place throughout France from September 7 to 29. As a reminder, France Design Week is an event label launched in 2020 following the Assises du design in December 2019.
