DOMOTEX SHOW TIME


WELCOME The year begins with a new show and a vital new theme. The


numbers are encouraging and the range of exhibitors is as wide and varied as ever - which means 2023 will be off to a strong start

One of the things I like most about DOMOTEX is, quite frankly, you know just what you’re going to get. Time after time, the message they put out to the world is clear, unambiguous and entirely timely. This year is no exception. Simply by declaring themselves, quite literally, ‘Floored by Nature’ they are both raising the bar in terms of expectation and refl ecting the mood within the industry they represent. Looking, as I do, at the work companies have been doing in terms of


controlling carbon emissions and the innovative ways some of them are achieving this, there will be much more to discuss when they all come together here in the packed halls of Hannover. And that’s how it should be: another avenue to share and both fi nd


and - just as importantly - give inspiration to others - equally important, some may say, as the very serious business of simply doing business. It’s a theme refl ected in these pages. But there are others too, very much of the time. You only have to look at the views of two of the brightest stars in European interiors in the shape of Germany-based Holly


Becker and Sweden’s Stefan Nilsson who, between them, give some of the best insights into current and emerging trends. Holly is, as most will know already, the inspiration behind Mood Spaces and just like Stefan, will be on the stage, leading discussions on the keynote themes of Connecting Markets, Conscious Living and Colourful Nature. But it’s not all just about what’s


trending now, what we can look forward to standing on next year and how they fi t in with our ever changing surroundings. We can also look forward to other important contributions on matters such as the importance of eff ective customer experience as well as topics such as Cradle to Cradle in the fl ooring sector. In other words, the complete package for anyone closely involved in the fl ooring industry and all it involves. So, until we meet on the day, all that remains is to wish you a successful DOMOTEX 2023!
