It’s time for more colour in the bathroom!
The VDS trend forum Pop up my Bathroom at the world-leading ISH fair in Frankfurt turns colour into a talking point for the industry.
The VDS trend forum Pop up my Bathroom at the world-leading ISH fair in Frankfurt turns colour into a talking point for the industry.
At the ISH, the world’s leading fair for the sanitary industry that takes place in Frankfurt from 11 to 15.03, experts from a wide range of disciplines will come together to discuss the key issues facing the industry. Located in the midst of the inspiring Colour Selection exhibition at the Pop up my Bathroom trend platform in the Europa Hall (4.0), the lecture forum is an informative hotspot.
With its evolution into a lifestyle space, the bathroom is experiencing the return of colour as well. The colour transgressions of the 60s and 70s are forgotten – the main thing is to avoid boredom at all costs. Bathroom planners and the industry are responding to the desire for individually and boldly designed bathrooms with an ever growing variety of finishes and unusual arrangements.
When it comes to colour, the industry is awakening from the deep sleep it appeared to fall into following the Bahama Beige and Moss Green trauma of the 1970s. Now, with the advent of on-trend finishes in metallic colour variants, it’s becoming increasingly clear that the lifestyle cultivated in the rest of the interior is conquering the bathroom along with the desire for more cosiness.
We love spending time at home – and that includes the bathroom too. Its overall design is becoming increasingly cosy and welcoming – and revealing the growing influence of general interior design trends in the process. At the same time, new technical developments are a must-have in the bathroom too.
Pop up my Bathroom, an initiative of the German Sanitary Industry Association (Vereinigung Deutsche Sanitärwirtschaft e.V. [VDS]) and Messe Frankfurt established in conjunction with the ISH, is an experimental platform for architects, bathroom planners, interior designers and journalists.
