At Christmasworld, international retailers will be able to experience what colours, shapes and designs will be in vogue for Christmas decorations in the future. The Trend Area offers a unique overview of the exhibitors' new products, which will be presented by Stilbüro bora.herke.palmisano in three exciting trend worlds.
Different yet harmonious – side by side becomes togetherness. Designs that draw on a variety of sources and inspirations come together as equals and with festive emotion to form a shared idea. In this way, the Christmasworld Trends 27+ celebrate a peaceful coming together based on openness and an appreciation of contrasts. Three style directions show what matters.
‘The three trend worlds are united by one guiding principle: be responsible and connected with nature and optimistic about the future.’
clear+lovely
Focused and delicate, everyday and ceremonial – contrasts create emotional impact. clear+lovely combines a spirit of experimentation with craft techniques. The varied forms and surfaces contribute to an evocative interior atmosphere. Natural materials and glass that gently refracts light combine lightness with familiar authenticity, while graceful details and subtle colours lend a sense of tenderness and artistic depth.
Soft natural colours set the tone: Cosy White, Clear Sky and Gentle Breeze recall a sunlit snowy landscape. Roasted Apricot and Delicate Caramel are soothing and inviting, while Glossy Red adds confident accents. Clean Raffia, Soft Glass and Mellow Green highlight refined creations.
Rational presence and sensory perception – in structural+emotive, extremes in design become powerful companions. Logic and a focused, analytical design language encourage concentration on the essentials. Emotion comes into play on an equal footing when forms are constructed as translucent structures or break up the rigour with natural grains, textures and atmospheric scents.
Nocturnal Black and Bright White represent polarity, clarity and emotion; their effect changes with the surface. Shimmering Silver meets Cooling Graphite and Balmy Smoke. Fragrant Wood, Smooth Hanji, Warm Brown and Velvety Stone unfold a subtle warmth and underline focused, quiet festivity.
The sculptural and seemingly unique appear as if drawn from a cabinet of curiosities displaying the most astonishing creations of human creativity, flora and fauna. noble+fancy honours timeless artistic value, including that of sacred spaces, while visual effects and exaggeration are used to create an object-like quality. Complex cultural identities are equally defining here, with couture also serving as inspiration.
Warm, striking and elegantly faded: Striking Green and Rich Oxblood feel festive and timelessly classic. Deep Walnut draws the eye to precious elegance and trust. Smooth Elder and Dry Moss create unusual dynamics. White Peony, Lush Ginster, Faded Lilac and Dusty Rose form the floral anchor.
