Trends for tomorrow’s<br />
living spaces<br />
This year interzum addressed some<br />
very exciting themes and ideas for<br />
trade visitors. It demonstrated that<br />
outstanding innovations in furniture<br />
production and interior construction<br />
are constantly being developed.<br />
New materials, technologies and<br />
design approaches were just some<br />
of the key areas that the trade fair<br />
focused on. The products on display<br />
ranged from fittings, surfaces and<br />
decors to textiles, glass and lighting<br />
all the way through to innovative<br />
materials. The wide-ranging special<br />
events at the trade fair examined<br />
global trends such as sustainability,<br />
digitalization and mobility. The<br />
special Mobile Spaces event area<br />
explored how a new understanding<br />
of mobility will influence vehicle<br />
interiors. With events such as this,<br />
