Nuestra Misión
Fomentamos el Diseño Socialmente Responsable como motor de cambio económico, social y cultural, impulsando la innovación y la sana competencia.
¿Qué es Inédito?
Inédito es mucho más que una exhibición; es un escaparate para diseñadores, artesanos, talleres y estudios creativos. Cada año, presentamos las nuevas propuestas de diseño utilitario hecho en México, explorando la intersección entre forma y función, tradición y contemporaneidad.
