Creativeworld Trend show

Handmade playful and quick ideas for busy people.

Handmade objects are personal, unique and internationally in vogue. Fashionable designers demonstrate the potential of paper, scissors, wool etc. and showcase folded, glued and knitted objects in their galleries.

Particularly in our hectic digital world, people who are active and busy are increasingly finding a sense of balance by making things. They are looking to create immediate, straightforward and playful objects. Our Creative Trends offer attractive inspirations that can easily be realised and therefore fit into busy daily schedules.

We look forward to seeing you at: Hall 4.2 G41

Flashy Nature

For "Flashy Nature" the emphasis is on colour. Bright "acid yellow" is painted over large areas of wall and porcelain and makes individual elements stand out. This powerful colour creates its striking effect everywhere: stamp-printed on T-shirts, bags or post cards, as a way of picking out the edges of furniture or as wall decoration. Its bright luminosity is all the more striking when combined with natural and recycled materials, so that elegant design items can quickly and easily be created out of everyday objects.

Cosy Darling

With "Cosy Darling" the artist takes a journey through time: the focus is on the 1950s and 1960s. Patterns such as large dots and sweet little birds, butterflies or flowers are put onto all kinds of material, using a wide variety of techniques. Delicacy, light-heartedness and a feminine lightness of touch are mixed with nostalgic chic. Lino and stamp printing are used on cushions and pillows, bags, curtains, ceramics, packaging and postcards and conjure delicate motifs on nostalgic favourites. Thus transforming them into unique neo-modern items.

Structural Mood

Lovers of graphic and spatial design will feel themselves well served with "Structural Mood". Light and shade, together with black and white create the accents. The focus is on graphic forms, linear patterns and 3-D effects, turning everyday objects into modern designer items.  Home-made "cut-outs", reliefs and items folded from elegant, high-quality papers and felts have a particularly decorative effect. Simple circles and zig-zag patterns embellish walls, lamps and furniture – simple techniques with powerful effects.
