Outdoor Furniture Trend Show & Icons of Outdoor Furniture: A look back into the future at spoga+ gafa 2018

The trends will also be presented at imm cologne in the spring of 2019

At spoga + gafa 2018, the trend highlights of tomorrow and the furniture icons of the present day will come alive: Under the title Outdoor Furniture Trend Show, the largest garden trade fair in the world will present the trends of the coming season on several product islands. An international expert jury will select the participants of the trend show. An own special event entitled “Icons of Outdoor Furniture” offers the appropriate setting for the trend show, where the bestselling and most stylish garden furniture of the current and also former exhibitors of spoga+gafa will be presented.

Beautiful living - an ongoing trend, which has long since taken the garden world by storm. In the scope of the internationally curated trend show, spoga+gafa is daring to take a look ahead to the future of outdoor furniture and shading systems. The focus is on materials and functionality, innovative product characteristics, new combinations and the theme sustainability, as well as comfort and ergonomics, flexibility and multifunctionality.

Only products that have been launched onto the market between September 2017 and September 2018 are eligible for participation. The trade fair has been able to win over representatives from the sections design, trade, institutions and trend research as jury members. The selection from among all of the products submitted will be taken among others by Jeanette Altherr (Designer, Lievore Altherr, Barcelona, Spain), Manuel Rucar (Trend Researcher, Chlorosphere S.A.S, Angers, France) and Jürgen Schuster (Managing Director, HS Fachmarkt Vertriebs-GmbH, Genderkingen, Germany).

Icons from 1960 until today

The trend show is accompanied by the Icons of Outdoor Furniture special event, which presents worldwide icons of the outdoor industry. They surround the new Trend Islands and place them in a temporal context. Hence, for the exhibitors and trade visitors, the history and the future of furniture trends will be tangible and come to life in one area.
