Heimtextil shows the new trends.

På messen Heimtextil i Frankfurt satser de på den positive udvikling indenfor hotel branchen og byggeindustrien. Udstillerne viste alt fra tapeter til madrasser…og alt der imellem. Hovedparten lå dog på sengelinned, pynte puder, tæpper, metervarer til møbelpolstring og gardiner.

At the fair Heimtextil in Frankfurt, they pursue the positive development in the hotel industry and the construction industry. The exhibitors showed everything from wallpapers for mattresses … and everything in between. The majority, however, lay on the bed linen, cushions, carpets, fabrics for upholstery and curtains.

Jeg havde valgt at fokusere på trend området, og et område med upcycling af textiler, hvor unge designere havde boltret sig…Begge områder var virkelig spændende…i denne post vil jeg fortælle jer lidt om de kommende tendenser indenfor interiør. Messen har haft 6 trend- og design bureauer til i samarbejde at udvikle disse tendenser.

I had chosen to focus on the trend area, and an area for upcycling of textiles, where young designers had indulged … Both areas were really exciting … in this post I will tell you about the coming trends in interiors.

Hovedtemaet kaldte de Well-Being, det var herefter delt op i 4 under kategorier. Nemlig Protect, Energise, Enrich og Nourish.

Generelt for alle temaerne gælder det om at vigtigheden i at bringe menneskelige elementer tilbage ind i design. Der bliver lagt mere vægt på vores sanser, og hvordan vi regere på bestemte stimuli. Man udfordre stadig måder at blande det kunstigt fremstillede med det naturlige. Gamle håndværk bliver udfordret af ny teknologi for at priotere både funktion og udseende.

The main theme called Well-Being, was divided into four sub-categories, Protect, Energise, Enrich and Nourish. In generel for all four themes, it is all about bringing the human elements back into design is essential. There will be more emphasis on the senses and how we react on certain stimuli. There will still be a challenge in finding ways to blend the artificial with the natural. Craftspeople are blending ancient know-how with new technology to prioritize both functionality and beauty.
