A prominent feature of the fair is the Partner Country’s presentation, “Providence and Provenance,” which British designer Janice Kirkpatrick curated with products from the exhibitors. “Janice Kirkpatrick has extraordinary skill as a designer,” said Nicolette Naumann, vice president of Ambiente, in a statement. “Born in Scotland, she is one of the United Kingdom’s leading graphic and product designers. We are very much looking forward to working with her and to putting her creative ideas for presenting the United Kingdom at Ambiente into practice. Her realization is sure to be impressive.”
