PREVIEW – STYLEPARK LIGHT + BUILDING
Luminous unique pieces
The halls of Messe Frankfurt will soon be all about lighting and building technology again: Light + Building is already in the starting blocks and will present an extensive programme from 3 to 8 March 2024. This includes the trend presentation for 2024/25 by style agency bora.herke.palmisano in the Design Plaza in Hall 3.1. The team has analysed three trends, which will be presented both in the special show and in the lectures – "Welcome Tomorrow", "Embrace Simplicity" and "Create Uniqueness". For the forecast, Claudia Herke, Cem Bora and Annetta Palmisano analysed international trends in interior design, art, lifestyle and fashion. "Welcome Tomorrow" thus describes the combination of craftsmanship and pioneering technologies that result in extraordinary designs. The aesthetics of the design sometimes appear supernatural and offer illusory effects.
"Embrace Simplicity", on the other hand, takes a holistic view and favours minimalist designs that offer a calm atmosphere in times of change. Sustainable and approachable development is important for this, which also offers space for experimentation with alternative materials. The results are as functional as they are emotional. This contrasts with the "Create Uniqueness" trend: an eclectic mix in which every element has the potential to be a stand-alone piece. The disciplines of design and art merge together for a grand appearance and showcase unique pieces that are eye-catching in any room. This includes unconventional material combinations as well as a new combination of industrial and handcrafted elements – an outstanding design that opens up new perspectives.
All of the trends elaborated by bora.herke.palmisano offer visitors to the world's leading trade fair Light + Building multifaceted inspiration and provide exciting insights into the latest innovations in lighting and building technology: "The Light + Building Trends 2024/25 take up the pioneering developments in the lighting sector and show a broad spectrum of resource-saving manufacturing techniques, durable materials, traditional craftsmanship and modern, digital production technologies. The latest products meet sophisticated and specific design requirements and demonstrate the dialogue between the individual, the room and its lighting," says the bora.herke.palmisano style agency.
