IMM Cologne 2008 Preview


What is different this year? There will be no Ideal House project.


Instead of zooming the future into the "Ideal House" in the present, such as the German Design Council has tried to achieve in recent years (which in my opinion was more a scene for expressing a certain designer's ideas), now visitors will have the possibility to learn more about a partner country and its design in international context. The 2008 choice is Duch design.


Zanotta is one of the very few major corporations to present novelties at the imm cologne. Zanotta's presentation in Cologne will center on the Delta sofa by Emaf Progetti, which will premiere in Cologne.










Another interesting product - FLAKES by Mia Cullin for Woodnotes is made of Tyvek FLAKEFlake elements can be used to make different surfaces for curtains and partitions or for place mats and other table decorations.Three-dimensional forms are also possible. Flake elements are joined by slipping the point of an element through the hole of another element. The surface can be made for one-sided or two-sided use.By changing the direction from wich you slip the point,you can leave the points on the back side. You can create a whole or a net like,loose surface. The surfaces can be undone and redone.
