Interior & Garden


The relaxation business
In today’s fast-paced world, a trip to a spa is like an excursion to heaven. Sweat out your sorrows in a sauna. Let a Thai massage take away your tension. Bid your problems goodbye in a Turkish bath. But to allow visitors to soak in all the pleasures of a spa, the area has to be designed and planned with care. This is precisely the work of Thermarium Bäder-Bau GmbH. The Austrian company plans and builds spa and wellness areas to give visitors all the relaxation they deserve. It believes so strongly in its work that it supports Global Wellness Day, an initiative encouraging people to live more mindfully so that they celebrate each day for a healthier and happier life.

Take the plunge in a natural pool

With the natural pools from Bioteich SAS, however, it is possible to have both. The French company has been building natural pools that blend into the environment for nearly 30 years.

Innovation forever and Ever
It is a room for bathing, beautifying and unwinding after a long day. Over the last couple of years, bathrooms have evolved into spa-like havens of relaxation and restoration. They are no longer a strictly functional space but more and more a personal retreat. When it comes to bathroom designs Thermomat Saniline Srl from Borgo Virgilio has always been a trendsetter. The company has regularly set new standards – not only but especially with its famous thermostatic cartridge.

Home furnishings also have a place in Italy’s couture culture. Fabbian Illuminazione Spa partners with international designers and architects to produce stylish and modern light fixtures, so consumers can take home a piece of Italian fashion at an affordable price.

Building the perfect brand store
The shop interiors of prominent fashion brands always impress with the wonderful clothing on display. However, the image of a brand is not only reflected in its products but to an even greater extent in the environment it chooses to present the brand. Imagebuilders BV knows all about the creation of the perfect sales setting, as it is the first address manufacturers like Tommy Hilfiger, Scotch & Soda, Levi`s or Lee turn to when a new shop interior has to be brought to life.

The commercial interior decorating sector has seen continued growth throughout the recent recession, with commissions from international corporations, larger SMEs and institutions such as healthcare providers supplying major demand for services. In Belgium, as in the UK and other countries, there is also key growth and demand in the hospitality sector, notably in hotels and restaurants. There is increasing appreciation within commercial industries as to how well-planned, comfortable offices and public spaces can affect the ambience and potential productivity of an institution, an appreciation that is also recognized within government institutions. Despite government cutbacks affecting demand from national and local authorities, there is still a need, and legal requirement, to upgrade buildings such as schools and hospitals; interior design and decorating companies need to comply with growing legislation with regards to sustainability, for example, building materials and insulation.

Bringing space to life
Every day we move through and within a variety of spaces – space in which we live, recreational space, space for work, learning, shopping or to wait. Because different spaces serve different purposes, it only makes sense that they are designed according to their usage. This becomes particularly tricky if the use of a space varies within the day.

Since its foundation, the company has implemented an impressive number of projects, and now the flourishing business is expanding abroad.

Danish bathroom design
Bathroom designers must take many factors into account when creating bathroom furniture that will meet the needs of a typical family bathroom.

They’ve got it covered
After a series of disappointing summers, Northern Europe has for once basked in sunshine this year. Anyone lucky enough to have their own swimming pool in the garden will have been glad of the opportunity to cool off. But even when the summer is not as warm as this year, it can be worth investing in a pool. With a pool cover from Nivovas Kft keeping the water warm, a refreshing dip can still be enjoyed even if the weather is not pool-perfect.

Since the turn of the 20th century, the fame of Italian design has grown to heights of class and sophistication.

Like in decor and furniture design, Italy has also set trends in the industrial sector, for example with Zanussi’s creative fridges and washing machines or Olivetti’s office and electronic equipment designs.
