Det är mycket nu...

Ibland känns det som om världen snurrar extra fort. Då kan det vara svårt att hänga med. Sista tiden har det varit lite mycket på flera fronter omkring mig. Både i jobbet och privat. Nu ser det ut att lugna sig lite...

Har nyligen kommit hem från Frankfurt och besök på den galet stora mässan Ambiente. Det var hall efter hall full med både snyggt och fult. Det gäller att ha bra skor, ta många pauser och inse att det inte finns chans att se allt... Mässan lockade ca 150 000 besökare!! Längre ner har jag klippt in några rader från officiella sajten för mässan som sammanfattar trenderna på Ambiente 2008.

Been rather hectic here both at work and private the last weeks. Recently I came home from Frankfurt and the Ambiente fair. Here is a short report from the official website for Ambiente.

"Trend 2008: modern, elegant and very natural! Sustainability, elegance, clarity and luxury – the new trend is towards sophistication and premium quality. The age of retro and baroque is past. 2008 will be a year of self-assured elegance. Modern, clear and natural lines are the determining characteristics. Less is more – and better. At the same time, people are becoming more socially aware and desirous of a more 'natural' lifestyle. In the home, this is reflected by the use of materials such as wood, ceramic and stone, as well as by the growing interest in product sustainability. When it comes to colour, white sets the tone. In combination with brown, beige and gold, it creates a natural and warm feeling in the home. Combined with the new grey and silver, interiors are given a more refined touch. However, bright colours also have a role to play with blackberry, purple, apple green and ocean blue setting fresh, spring-time accents."
