The Creativeworld Trends 2025 build a bridge to manufacturers and inspire them to implement new and unconventional ideas. Because the joy of life grows with creative work! Immerse yourself in the latest trends in the creative industry here.
The industry and trend outlook is based on analyses of current colour, shape and material trends. It clearly shows how these aspects flow into creative techniques and handicrafts. This time, the Creativeworld Trends are all about the joy of walking, which can inspire creativity to a high degree. Find out here and live at the trade fair in February how sensual and astonishing creative works are created from observations of nature.
LET’S TAKE A WALK… in the city
Our route through the city with its modern architecture follows geometry and aesthetic order. The linear window fronts of high-rise buildings, for example, or the stripes and surface divisions in the typical street grid.
Creative specialist retailers offer coloured papers, transparent fabrics, acrylic paints and knitwear as well as sets for bead weaving and embroidery for this trend world.

LET’S TAKE A WALK… in the garden
In this trend world, the richness of nature can be experienced up close. The diverse shapes and details in the beds can easily be transferred to painted, knitted, embroidered or modelled motifs. Strawberries, for example, become a visual treat and juicy vegetables adorn painted plates in the ceramics studio.
Screen printing utensils, pen cutters, broken glass, wax crayons, paper and much more can be purchased in the specialised shop. A great opportunity for retailers to expand their range with suitable techniques and workshops for customers.

LET’S TAKE A WALK… in the forest
The third trend world of Creativeworld combines various techniques that preserve the random patterns and textures of the forest or reproduce them realistically. Again and again, the aim is to immortalise the delicacy and complexity of plants.
There is a wide range of brushes, clay, paper, knitting materials, stones etc. on offer in specialist shops, which could also provide the right specialist literature or instructions for traditional techniques such as enamelling or macramé.
