Coexistence defines the season ahead: Contrasts come together, while different aesthetics naturally coexist, opening up new perspectives on how we live. The three trend worlds clear + lovely, structural + emotive and noble + fancy show how diversity and contrasts can enrich our everyday lives.

Explore the three trend worlds and their defining colours, shapes and materials.
clear + lovely
clear + lovely presents us with a refined approach to living that gently awakens our senses and perceptions. Very varied aesthetics, colours and surfaces join forces in a meaningful whole. Traditional crafts are reinterpreted afresh in experimental ways. Light-coloured, natural materials meet delicate shades, while clear and strict shapes meet playful details. The result is a living environment that brings us poetry, clarity and peace.

structural + emotive
Methodical, yet with plenty of emotion: structural + emotive creates a harmonious living environment. Architectural layouts, contrasting graphics and geometric details come to the fore by the understated colour scheme. Subtly, function stands out as something special. This results in spaces that showcase the very essence of a good lifestyle. Minimalist and sensory. Formal and organic. Strong and subtle. structural + emotive allows us to experience the profound aspects of every day.

noble + fancy
noble + fancy means objets d’art, collector’s pieces, surreal crafts and furniture with hints of couture. It reintroduces the cabinet of curiosities, where the divides between fashion and interior design blur just as much as those between art and craft. Influences from different eras add up to a new way of marking time. Extravagant individual items can transform an entire room, whether elegant or offbeat, eccentric or classic, natural or artificial. This is an unconventional interior theme with many layers, placing the joy of diversity itself into the spotlight.
