COLOUR
Muted greens, burnt oranges as well as rich and bold colours dominated the colour palette at most stands.
CLEAN, FUTURISTIC LIGHTING
The trend in lighting is toward clean, abstract forms which use light application in innovative ways due to the advances made with LED technology.
TIMELESS FORMS IN LUXURIOUS MATERIALS/FINISHES
Pieces were more timeless and functional in form but were displayed in the latest colours (see above) and luxurious finishes. Stone’s were on trend again this year with alot of green and brown stones coming through. We also saw a lot of rich and buttery leathers, brass accents as well as patterned/textured fabrics.
LARGE SOFA CONFIGURATIONS
Sofa’s were larger than life with a focus on deeper seat dimensions and with the addition of sofa lifestyle accessories such as servers and benching between modules.
