From inspiration to realization
For over 15 years our design team has been researching those trends that will influence the color and material choices of the future – gathering unique insights from all over the world and translating these into an inspiring yearly trend collection. Researching materials is a continuous process, we find inspiration everywhere we go, in design, fashion, architecture, by visiting fairs and exhibitions, follow up on new technologies, or sometimes just in a beautiful color combination we see passing by on the street.
