Top 5 trends observed at Heimtextil
At Heimtextil, we had the opportunity to explore a variety of innovative and captivating trends in the world of textiles for interior design. This unique and fascinating experience brought us face-to-face with a spectacle of textures, colors, and sustainable concepts that are already defining the design of 2023.
Focus on eco materials
One of the most important trends we noticed is the focus on eco, bio, and organic materials. The textile industry is moving towards sustainability and the use of environmentally friendly materials as much as possible. We were able to experience a diverse range of textiles made from natural fibers such as organic cotton, linen, bamboo, and many others.
2. Sustainability and circular economy
Sustainability and the circular economy have been and will continue to be a major concern in interior design. We noticed an increased interest in recyclable and biodegradable textiles, as well as production processes with minimal impact on our ecosystem. Design and innovation blend with ethical and sustainable practices, with the industry’s effort being to reduce the negative footprint on the environment while manufacturing durable and high-quality products.
3. Sound-absorbing fabrics
Another outstanding trend we noticed is the use of sound-absorbing fabrics in interior design. With an increasing emphasis on comfort and functionality of spaces, materials that absorb noise are becoming indispensable in everyday life, as we all want to listen to music without disturbing our neighbors or family members. We saw a variety of textiles with sound-absorbing properties, which not only offer a pleasant aesthetic but also improve the acoustics in rooms, ensuring a peaceful and relaxing environment.
4. Unique combinations of textures
Unique combinations of materials and textures were the order of the day at Heimtextil. We noticed that interior design is moving towards a creative mix of velvet, cotton, viscose, and other high-quality materials, with abstract images and bold colors such as shades of red, blue, or green being promoted as bringing drama and expressiveness to interior decor.
5. Local tradition and nature
Lastly, local tradition and nature continue to be an important source of inspiration in interior design. From ethnic and artisanal motifs to floral prints and organic influences, these types of textiles bring a touch of authenticity and warmth to interior spaces. At the end of the day, we were impressed by the textiles and patterns inspired by cultural and natural traditions, with colors that reference the natural essence being considered ideal for a modern and contemporary design.
