2007 / 2008 Deco Trends - the Christmasworld trend brochure presents colours, designs and materials for the forthcoming festive season (Aug 1, 2006)
 Trend expert Gunnar Frank has identified three colour worlds, white, yellow and blue, for the 2007/2008 festive and festive decorations season, although creating a trend involves more than simply the right choice of colour. It’s only by combining these colours with designs and materials that the comprehensive trend and theme worlds, defined every year by Frank for Christmasworld - the top international fair for festive decorations - are created. The current trend brochure "Rendezvous - White, Yellow, Blue" gives information on the latest developments, in advance of Christmasworld.
White - transparent and elegant
The theme of white runs right through the romantic decoration theme "White". Gunnar Frank evokes associations with the elegant, opulence and romance of St. Petersburg. Rich embellishment, Baroque ornamentation, velvet, lace, crystal and trimmings set the tone here. Pale grey is combined with muted turquoise, cream and pink and off-white.
Yellow – splendid and imaginative
The young, modern world of decoration makes a powerful appearance. "Yellow" wagers on Southern charm and Spanish temperament. Earthy tones, sand, amber and orange, are reminiscent of the scorching desert sun. Exotic flowers, including amaryllis, callas and lilies, set refreshing accents, alongside hand-painted ceramics and ornate glass featuring religious motifs. Velvet and brass, cambric and damask round off the fiery festive season.
Blue – natural and original
Here, Nordic cool meets the dark green of rural informality, with clear, blue tones like indigo and sky. "Blue", the third colour world, has a rustic, natural look. Painted wood, ceramics and pottery, enamel, cotton and linen, in a hand-printed look, and pillow lace complete the original, authentic mood.
 The 2006/2007 festive decorations season has already been on display. Many of the accessories are not tied to a specific season but can be used throughout the year. The 2007/2008 season goes a step further than this. At the upcoming Christmasworld, the Bora.Herke style agency makes it apparent that the three colour worlds are transferable to a wide variety of festive occasions, either in spring or at Christmas time. The creative minds, responsible for implementing the trends developed by Gunnar Frank into tangible trend worlds, regularly create the trend show in Hall 9.2. staging the three colour worlds as a Christmas, party and elegant festive theme, respectively.
From Wednesday to Sunday (at 12 noon and 3.30 pm) during Christmasworld, designer Gunnar Frank invites you to tour the trend show (on Thursday at 12 noon only). Meeting point: the trend show exhibition area in Hall 9.2.
The trend book, which is a compilation of Frank’s theme worlds, also contains a comprehensive palette of the trend colours, complete with Pantone details. The price of the trend book is Euro 20 plus Euro 3 postage and packing. If the Paperworld 2007 trend brochure is ordered together with the Christmasworld trend book, the price for the two brochures is Euro 35 plus Euro 3 postage and packing.
