Review of International furniture and interiors fair of cologne 2018

“Das Haus” – a walk-in simulation of a home designed by Lucie Koldova this year – was once again one of the trade fair highlights in every sense of the term as light played a key role in the installation. Lighting, bathrooms and the smart home were the focus topics for this edition of the fair, and particular emphasis was placed on them in the Pure Architects concept hall. By examining these themes, the 360-degree interiors show addressed three crucial future issues that are set to be increasingly important in interior design.

Imm Cologne, to meet the changing needs of consumers, who are witnessing momentous social, economic and cultural changes, which are inevitably also rapidly changing their way of experiencing the home and living area. The old concept of a living room is gradually being replaced by a new idea of a space that becomes a place of refuge, serenity and sharing, where technology is focused on comfort and design.

The international furniture and interiors fair imm cologne is the platform for interior design and interior business. Our array of exhibitors covers every category in the furniture and interiors industry, providing a market overview with a unique diversity of product worlds and furnishing styles.

This year Imm Cologne present you with a new approach to our unique signature, with more clean lines and features, while maintaining the identity the world fell in love with.

Boho Chic
“Boho Chic is the new ethnic”! Boho chic is making waves in the interior design world. Boho style allows items to be mixed interior design pieces that didn’t appear to fit together at first sight. Colorful ethnic patterns next to modern graphic design, a wicker table from the flea market accompanied by an Eames chair, black-and-white photos of Hollywood stars on the wall next to black-and-white cows.

Botanicals
Greenery is here to stay! Whether as a wall paint or as an interior design accessory, the green phase will take over 2018. With this green touch, you will be able to bring color and life into your house easily. Use it in small or big, it’s your decision.

Ultra Violet
Selected as the Pantone color of the year, Ultra Violet came along with the greens of 2017 as we are loving it! During the trade show, we saw lots of statement pieces in Ultra Violet, that added a unique touch to the vibe lived in the stands.

Marble
Marble combines ambiance, sustainability, and a clean look and guess what? Marble is back in vogue as a material not only for bathrooms but for floors and wall coverings, as well as for furniture pieces such as tables, coffee tables, benches and home accessories. Designers value the durable material not only for its elegant aesthetics but also because of its long-lasting, high-quality properties.

Pink and Powder Tones
It’s the perfect color since we have seen it mixed with black, blue, gray, white and green! Powdery pinks are very “in” and look chic in textiles and accessories or as a paint color that can be changed in the next few years rather than big investment pieces or more permanent installations like tiles.
