We were totally looking forward to seeing this year’s Ambiente in Frankfurt. This international fair did not disappoint as there were so many interesting booths and activities to indulge our design cravings. Check it out with Iko In and Dr.Eric Leong as they walk you through Ambiente 2019 in this video.
AMBIENTE 2019 ROUND-UP
Ambiente, the world’s leading trade fair for consumer goods in Frankfurt has come to an end after five days, finishing in an excellent mood and with a rise in visitor numbers. 136,000 trade visitors from 166 countries came to Ambiente 2019, ordering the latest products from the entire world for their businesses and obtaining inspiration for their merchandise presentation at the POS as well as new ideas for the digital future.
More and Merrier This Year
Occupying an exhibition space of 306,500 square metres (gross) [1], 4,451 exhibitors from 92 countries [2] revealed the trends of this coming business year. 85 per cent [3] of all exhibitors came from outside Germany, making Ambiente 2019 the most international one of all times. Ambiente in Frankfurt was visited by around 136,000 buyers from 166 countries [4], resulting in an increase in visitors and a very upbeat atmosphere in the halls. Significantly more exhibitors reached their targets for the trade fair this year, making more contacts than the year before.
Bollywood Inspirations All Around
Ambiente 2019 was very much dominated by the masterly craftsmanship and traditions of the subcontinent, by Bollywood and by an amazing variety of delicious food. Over the last few years eight partner countries have successfully showcased themselves at Ambiente. Now it’s time for something new and the partner country globe is returning home. But in 2020, we can also look forward to the exciting subject of “The world comes to Ambiente”, as the world’s leading trade fair will be presenting a programme in a new look and exceptional design.
Trends for the Senses
The Ambiente Trends for 2019: tasteful residence – quiet surroundings– joyfilled ambience. What are the characteristic features of each style? Which themes and emotions do they reflect? What are their stories? Which colours, materials and product mixes are important? “The trends that are identified for Ambiente Trends by Stilbüro bora.herke.palmisaro each year are far more than presentations of contemporary products. The show helps visitors to understand the look and feel of international trends on all levels: intellectually, visually and emotionally. This all-embracing inspiration makes all the difference to retailers wanting to apply exactly the right new worlds of style within their stores. Our new services are a major investment for this special purpose,” says Nicolette Naumann, Vice President of Ambiente. The innovative services include a trends film and booklet as well as the audio guide.
