A BRACKLEY firm has been hired to create huge temporary exhibition venues for two major London art events.
De Boer Structures (UK), based on the Buckingham Road Industrial Estate, has filled the grounds of the Royal Hospital in Chelsea with more than 12,000 sq m of temporary space for this week's Decorex International event. More than 10,000 visitors are
expected to attend the interior design exhibition, and organisers are committed to a further three years with De Boer.

Structures will remain in place for the forthcoming Art London exhibition, running from October 2 to October 6.
De Boer's sales director for events, John Cochrane, said: "It's great to be back at Chelsea and have a commitment for a further three years from Decorex."

Decorex event director Caroline Lawson-Dick said: "The whole De Boer team are fantastic; they're on time every time, and very flexible if we want last-minute changes."

The firm is very familiar with the Royal Hospital as it is the home of one of its biggest contracts – the RHS Chelsea Flower Show.
Components to create two massive temporary halls, measuring 50m by 120m and 50m by 115m, were lifted into a position overlooking the Thames by a 100-tonne crane.

Established in 1924 and based in The Netherlands, De Boer today employs more than 350 full-time staff and has offices throughout Europe and in the Middle East, as well as representation in the US.
