Founded in Barcelona in 1950, Font Design Group has led the way in integrating craftmanship and innovation into the local manufacturing of high-end switches and sockets. With a strong commitment to excellence and cutting-edge technology, its collections transform functional elements into refined design pieces that elevate every architectural project. Font Design Group is home to two distinguished brands: Fontini, rooted in craftsmanship and creativity, and Font Barcelona, known for its sleek aesthetics and customizable pieces. Both brands, recognized with prestigious international awards, offer timeless, characterful collections that seamlessly blend style, functionality, and innovation, bringing uniqueness to every space.

As part of the Design / Dialogue exhibition curated by Ark Journal, Font Design Group's space will reveal a curated selection of design switches and mechanisms, highlighting materials and finishes that define the identity of its two brands: Fontini and Font Barcelona. Visitors will discover the creative and production process behind each piece — from concept to craftsmanship — and experience the tactile and visual quality of their designs.
