A key trend for 2025

At the entrance to the show, you'll discover an atmosphere designed by Manuel Rucar, from the Chlorosphère trend agency, and our exhibiting partners, to illustrate one of the key trends for the next collections: the colourful garden that brings back the colours!
Two islands will be showcasing a strong consumer expectation for the changing seasons: a garden where you can forget your worries and let loose without judgement.

A notable return to colour that goes hand in hand with the trend that is sweeping through interior design. Discover a new way of talking to your customers about gardens in a simple, fun way.
Let's not forget that our worlds are not just responses to constraints and functionalities, but also have a strong ornamental dimension. As a reminder of this, the use of generative artificial intelligence has enabled us to develop a no-holds-barred approach to the garden.
