Events: Special Area - Outdoor Trends

Be it balcony or garden, city or country idyll, rising temperatures are enticing fresh-air enthusiasts outside. They create islands of greenery for themselves in the city, promising peace and relaxation. Or, with everything but the kitchen sink, they transform the garden into a colourful party zone, which the neighbours can’t resist either.

Which colours, patterns and materials represent which sorts of attitude to life? The magazine Bloom’s, in co-operation with Messe Frankfurt, are showcasing the trends for town and country that will be setting the tone in the spring and summer seasons of 2009.


Love of the country

The garden season will open with cheery, country-style items that make working in the garden with children and friends a sheer pleasure. Fiery reds, succulent greens as well as fresh yellows and whites signal the joys of life. ‘Farming is in – and is inspiring new accessories for picnics and happy companionship.
