ARTDOM Riyadh: An Exclusive Furniture & Interior Design Expo-Congress

Riyadh has a red-letter date circled in ink. On November 11-12, 2025, the city hosts ARTDOM Riyadh, a tightly curated interior design and art expo-congress staged at the Four Seasons Hotel Riyadh at Kingdom Centre. For two days, the world’s design vanguard (heritage houses, avant-garde studios, collectors, developers, and media) converges in the Kingdom for an agenda with one purpose: translate taste into timeless spaces and meetings into measurable business.

A Platform Built for Momentum

Founded and led by Daria Zolotova, ARTDOM has grown from a flagship expo in Russia into a traveling congress for design culture, featuring heavyweight ambassadors like Giulio Cappellini, Carlo Colombo, Draga & Aurel, and Rossana Orlandi. The organizers describe it as an International Exhibition of Furniture, Interior Solutions and Art, with a B2B matchmaking arena running in parallel so conversations move smoothly from inspiration to order. It’s commerce with culture, precisely engineered.

“I have always believed that design is a universal language, one that connects people and helps us understand each other better.”

— Daria Zolotova

What’s On: Talks, Pitches, Matchmaking

Across both days, ARTDOM layers:

• Exclusive presentations & premieres of new collections.
• Panel discussions & public talks with design leaders.
• Exhibitor booths & pitch sessions showcasing products live.
• B2B matchmaking meetings in a dedicated area.
• Curated design tours across highlight brands.
• Ambassador keynotes from global icons.
• Limited-edition launches and special reveals.
• Networking lounges for media, buyers, and creators.

The Numbers Behind the Hype

ARTDOM signals critical mass: 150+ premium and luxury brands, 50+ design icons and industry leaders, and 4,000+ visitors ranging from architects and interior designers to developers and private clients. That density is the value: you can benchmark suppliers, aesthetic directions, and production capabilities in a single pass then turn on the B2B engine to convert interest into purchase orders.

Where and When: Precision-Timed in the Heart of the City

• Venue: Four Seasons Hotel Riyadh at Kingdom Centre, a setting that matches the fair’s luxury positioning and makes after-hours networking effortless.
• Dates: Tuesday-Wednesday, November 11-12, 2025.

A Front Row of Global Taste-Makers

The ambassador roster reads like a who’s who of contemporary design: designer Giulio Cappellini, architect and designer Carlo Colombo, art & design gallerist Rossana Orlandi, designers Draga & Aurel, designer and interior architect Pierre Gonalons, and many more. Their presence is a signal of curatorial standards and an entry point into the global supply chain, from collectible objects to contract-grade manufacturing. As one preview put it, ARTDOM “brings the best in contemporary design to an important region,” spotlighting the Gulf’s growing influence.

Fresh Exhibitor Signals to Watch

In the countdown to opening, ARTDOM’s news feed has highlighted confirmed participants and program notes: Pierre Gonalons in the public-talks lineup, and exhibitor announcements such as ZAZA Maizon (A23), Teckell & Ciclotte (A30), and Nicoletti Home (A16), to name a few. These drops offer a live pulse on who’s showing and where to target your floor plan.

Why This Edition Matters for Saudi Arabia

ARTDOM’s arrival aligns with Vision 2030’s cultural and hospitality ambitions, giving developers and hoteliers a concentrated read on premium suppliers capable of delivering at scale. With Riyadh Season stretching across the city’s calendar, the fair taps into a customer base primed for design-led experiences, from boutique hotels and private members’ clubs to landmark residences. In short: it’s the right concept, in the right city, at the right time.

The Closing Note

In a city rewriting the rulebook for culture, hospitality, and design, ARTDOM Riyadh feels like the natural next chapter: a precision-edited encounter where global craft meets Saudi confidence. Come for the icons; stay for the conversations that become contracts, and for the rooms that will, in time, tell the story of this week.

On November 11–12, Riyadh isn’t just hosting a design fair. It’s setting a new standard for how the region defines, sources, and celebrates great design, from the lobby to the living room, from sketch to specification.
