Creativeworld 2023: Experience the creative trends

23 gennaio 2023

Creativity knows no limits. But how do retailers find just the right thing for their assortment in their shop among the sheer endless range of creative techniques and materials? The design team from the trend bureau bora.herke.palmisano has summarised the most important and hottest trends in the DIY sector for Creativeworld, 4 to 7 February 2023 in Frankfurt am Main. In the Trend Area in Hall 1.2 B61, this selection will be presented exclusively and brought to life on site with materials from the exhibitors.

Every year, Creativeworld Trends offer an overview of creative trends from all over the world. Even during Creativeworld's forced break due to Corona, they have given the industry a detailed outlook on tomorrow's trends. The trend bureau bora.herke.palmisano takes its inspiration from influences in fashion, architecture and social developments. So the trends not only show the latest products and materials, but also provide a sense of what will occupy the creative community in the future. Thus, the Creativeworld Trends 2023 reflect a sustainable awareness. Under the motto "Spot on handicraft", they deal intensively with the issue of resource scarcity and show how new things can be created from what is already available.

This year, the Trend Area will not only feature trendy products from Creativeworld exhibitors, but the trend bureau bora.herke.palmisano is also planning live activities. This will involve a creative team presenting the latest techniques live in the Trendareal. "We want to present a new technique, different materials and tools every day. For example, we will see the modelling of figures, the Japanese marbling technique `Suminagashi' or we will create paper garlands from high-quality papers," explains Claudia Herke from trend bureau. "The trade visitors will find inspiration for workshops in their own shops, can get tips from the professionals and get a feeling for how to use materials and tools correctly.

The trend experts from the bora.herke.palmisano trend bureau will present the Creativeworld trend themes daily from 10:00 to 10:45 a.m. on the Creative Academy stage.

Creative Academy and Creative Impulse Award - Inspiration for the trade

The Creative Academy with its varied workshop programme is the heart of Creativeworld. In Hall 1.1 at Stand D81, it invites you to be creative and network.

Among other things, workshops will be offered on the topics: Watercolouring, working with Sculpey Polymer Clay, Acrylic Art, Urban Skretching, Pop Art Work or Mixed Media Lettering with watercolour and fineliner. DIY icon Martina Lammel and Dorina Nowotny, blogger and social media coach, will be moderating the programme.
