Those small, elegant items
31 March 2011
Be it animal sculptures, vases or candles - accessories upgrade a dry trade fair presentation, complete the overall look, and evoke in the one or other previously unsuspected desires. Patricia Urquiola, for example, really emphasizes her cushions. At the Milan Salone del Mobile she regularly runs past her sofa creations, plumps up the cushions and if necessary re-arranges them. Not only designers, but also manufacturers like to decorate their booths with the requisite trimmings. And some of them go to great lengths as we could observe recently at the ISH in Frankfurt. It is not just a case of draping a towel over a holder, or placing any old soap on the washstand; no, we find a host of small, elegant items, which underscore an approach cultivating either the exclusive or purist, and which are to be read and recognized by a specific target group. Whether extravagant or more ordinary, natural, kitschy or playful - take a look and see which you like best.

Those small, elegant items
31 March 2011
There is a camel here, a small monkey there. And which soap adorns the latest washstands? Some presentations at this year's ISH were real eye-catchers, others simply a bit drab. But all were careful arrangements.
