Trends - Issue 71

In dit nummer

We’ve researched distant trends, and surrounded ourselves with historical references. First and foremost, through the respected Bauhaus movement, which celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2019. It has no single trend, that’s for sure, but this movement was and remains one of the great sources of inspiration for many architects, product and fashion designers, and for many other forms of art. That’s why TRENDS no. 71 dedicates some of its pages to minds that have been inspired, in one way or another, by this century-old concept. We’ve given a voice to the works of architect Raulino Silva, recipient of several awards; to Teresa Pietra Torres and Madalena Sousa Cabral, the names behind Mint Interior Design; to Jennifer Brachmann, architect, but passionate about the world of fashion; to La Redoute, one of the leading names in fashion and home ware, and to many others. We attended the December 10, 2019 launch of the MINI Electric Cooper SE in Brooklyn, New York. And because stories are written in colour, in this issue we fill the pages with sparkling subjects. Wishing you all balance, contrast, rhythm and harmony, our hope is that 2020 will be a year of many projects, designs and trends in the lives of each of our readers. Happy New Year and Happy Reading!
