Trending at Salone Internazionale Del Bagno 2014
Now in it’s 53rd year, Salone Internazionale Del Milano (Milan Design Week) is a week long celebration of all things design-oriented. Our Kohler rep has been checking out what’s new and on trend at Salone – here’s what she had to report …
Salone Bagno is awash with timber – timber walls, timber vanities, timber counter tops and even timber basins and baths.
It’s a finish that reflects the need to still relate with nature – it is a nurturing, natural and organic material. The finishes incorporate both genuine timbers as well as man made – the latter is testament to how technology has improved both the look and feel of these copies. It is hard to pick the genuine from the fake on many occasions.
This all enveloping use of timber is reflected in kitchens too. ALL the kitchen design stands feature the most beautiful timbers, natural and man made, in bench tops, cabinetry, splash backs, wall claddings etc.
Overall timber and organic would sum up the strongest theme in bathrooms at the fair.
