Designers go green at<br />
Home & Garden Show<br />
A fast-growing trend in design is “green<br />
living” as New Zealanders become<br />
increasingly aware of the importance of<br />
sustainable building and interiors.<br />
In recognition of the trend,<br />
Green Living is the theme<br />
for this year's Interior<br />
Design Awards, which are<br />
hosted at the <strong>Waikato</strong> Home<br />
& Garden Show.<br />
In the competition, interior<br />
designers are challenged<br />
to incorporate “green living”<br />
into a 5m x 4m stand.<br />
From incorporating sustainable<br />
materials and energy-efficient<br />
products to<br />
including green colour and<br />
bringing outdoor influences<br />
inside, they are tasked with<br />
getting creative.<br />
Visitors to the Show can<br />
see the results from <strong>October</strong><br />
4-7 at Claudelands Event<br />
Centre. They can also check<br />
out what’s on offer from more<br />
than 450 exhibitors, covering<br />
everything from smart technology<br />
in the new Samsung<br />
Smart Home feature to building<br />
solutions for sheds, tiny<br />
houses, sleepouts and more at<br />
the Street of Homes.<br />
“We know visitors this year<br />
are going to love the variety<br />
on offer - there’s such a great<br />
mix of exhibitors to see,”<br />
exhibition director Rebecca<br />
Hannah says.<br />
“Hundreds of experts are<br />
on hand over the four days to<br />
give free advice so bring along<br />
the plans or a sketch of your<br />
ideas to discuss direct with the<br />
business owners, designers<br />
and experts.<br />
“This is not only a useful<br />
day out for anyone interested<br />
in homes and gardens – it’s a<br />
fun one.”<br />
