A growing number of people with plans to build or renovate their home are dreaming of a bathroom that can do more – a place where they can switch off, relax and be active. After the experiences of the last year, the outside world seems more uncertain than ever before – and the private spa concept is becoming all the more valuable for individual wellbeing.
Pop up my Bathroom, the information platform for creative bathroom planning, architecture and design, is kicking off the next bathroom season: for the ISH digital 2021, the communication campaign of the German Bathroom Sector Association (Vereinigung Deutsche Sanitärwirtschaft e.V. [VDS]) and Messe Frankfurt is shining a spotlight on the latest trends in bathroom design.
In an installation entitled Colour Selection, the Pop up my Bathroom trend forum organised by Messe Frankfurt and the VDS (German Sanitary Industry Association) will be showing what opportunities the current colour trends in interior design are opening up for the sanitary sector. Twelve colour trends will be particularly influential in bathroom design:

With its evolution into a lifestyle space, the bathroom is experiencing the return of colour as well. The colour transgressions of the 60s and 70s are forgotten – the main thing is to avoid boredom at all costs. Bathroom planners and the industry are responding to the desire for individually and boldly designed bathrooms with an ever growing variety of finishes and unusual arrangements.
What does the bathroom of the future look like? Which new technologies and social developments will have a lasting influence on the bathroom? In addition to the surge of innovations being driven by digitalisation, the bathroom will have to provide new usage options as well.
The Nature Bathroom embodies the vision of a bathroom that expresses its commitment to sustainable action and nature through the choice of materials, design and water technology.
Expectations of the bathroom have increased – and will continue to do so. At the same time, consumers no longer primarily define comfort in terms of traditional signs of luxury like marble or exclusive designer fittings, but in terms of personalised bathroom equipment and design. Because the Comfortable Bathroom is no longer built for generations, but for the moment. 365 days a year.
Simple, tasteful and above all original: the modern urban bathroom has style and takes a self-assured approach to its historical heritage. It doesn’t matter whether the furniture is meant for the living room or the bathroom: as long as the look is right, anything goes.
White-on-white monotony with walls tiled all the way up to the ceiling was yesterday: the bathroom is becoming a stylish feel-good space that people enjoy spending time in.
The new logo for Pop up my Bathroom, the award-winning international campaign by the German sanitaryware industry, focuses on the vast amount of freedom today’s consumers have when it comes to planning an individual bathroom: the distinctive “Pop up.” wordmark is made up of 54 cabinets in different colours to create a pixel-like effect.
The latest trend developments in bathroom design – that was the main topic at this year’s Pop up my Bathroom Atelier trend forum at the ISH 2015. And as announced, the programme – which was held in two languages – didn’t just provide informative lectures and fascinating panel discussions; it also led to some intense debates and talks that went beyond the scope of the actual presentations.
In the bathroom, sharing playful grooming rituals and daily routines is a way for children to experience the love and care of their family. Besides a safe environment and plenty of space, they need to feel part of what’s happening up where they can’t reach as well.
In the run-up to the ISH 2015, the Pop up my Bathroom trend platform initiated by the German Sanitary Industry Association [Vereinigung Deutsche Sanitärwirtschaft e.V. (VDS)] explores the needs that should be taken into account by any bathroom concept designed for a specific life stage.
Barrier-free bathrooms don’t exactly have a sexy image. Most people associate them with a small, “disabled-friendly” tiled room dominated by grab rails, a minimalist ambience and the dubious charm of hospital furniture. However, it looks as if this image is about to undergo some fundamental changes over the next few years.
At the international ISH trade fair in Frankfurt (10th to 14th March), the “Pop up my Bathroom Atelier” lecture programme will again be shining a spotlight on the latest trend developments in the sanitary industry. The trend forum provides an abundance of ideas, informative presentations and fascinating panel discussions with distinguished speakers and international participants.
Pop up my Bathroom, an initiative of the German Sanitary Industry Association (Vereinigung Deutsche Sanitärwirtschaft e.V. [VDS]) and Messe Frankfurt established in conjunction with the ISH, is an experimental platform for architects, bathroom planners, interior designers and journalists.
