The nude 2026 show assembles a top-flight jury to select emerging design talent
Salón nude 2026, the international showcase for emerging design talent to be held from 28 September to 1 October within Feria Hábitat València, has formed the professional jury that will select the projects for its next edition. The committee comprises five professionals from complementary fields: Henar Diez, head of Cultural Action at the Culture Ministry's Cultural Industries Coordination Centre; Ángela Montagud and Jordi Iranzo of Clap Studio, winners of Spain's 2023 National Design Prize in the young designers category; multidisciplinary designer Ester Cruz, winner of the CevisamaLab 2023 First Prize for Ceramic Design and a past nude participant; Clara del Portillo, co-founder of Yonoh Estudio Creativo, whose work has earned honours including the Red Dot and iF Design Awards; and Javier Pastor, designer, researcher and lecturer at the Universitat Politècnica de València. The jury will assess entries on innovation, creativity, sustainability, quality and professional potential within the habitat sector. The call remains open until 23 June for international emerging designers, final-year students, design schools, universities and new publishers, producers or galleries, with real-scale projects in furniture, lighting, home textiles, kitchen or bathroom. With over two decades of history, nude has established itself as one of Europe's main platforms for emerging design, backed this year by the Ministry of Culture, the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities and the Valencian Design Foundation.
