In my TH 2026 interior trend book, we see the farmer in a fresh, transformative role—not just as an agricultural producer but as a true pioneer. Within the theme Savia Pasture, the farmer becomes both a provider and a source of sustainable, natural materials. By merging regenerative farming techniques with artisanal craftsmanship, this trend lays the groundwork for a new kind of collaboration: farmers and designers building a future where aesthetics matter, but the deep-rooted connection to nature takes center stage.

De opkomst van AI-platforms zoals Midjourney, DALL-E, Ideogram en Flux heeft de designwereld snel en ingrijpend veranderd. Voor velen brengt deze ontwikkeling een mix van enthousiasme en zorgen met zich mee. Er heerst onzekerheid over of AI banen en expertise zal overnemen. Maar juist nu is de rol van de ontwerper belangrijker dan ooit. Het is aan ontwerpers om te voorkomen dat we terechtkomen in een wereld van uniformiteit en betekenisloze ontwerpen. Dit is het moment om te laten zien wat wij, ontwerpers, kunnen en waarom deze rol onmisbaar is.

Biophilic en biobased – in mijn 'bubbel' zijn dit termen die momenteel veel voorbij komen; op social media en mijn mailbox stroomt vol met persberichten hierover. Maar wat betekenen ze nu precies?

This question occupies us more than ever as technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) become increasingly intertwined with our daily lives. In a world where physical and virtual realities overlap, it can sometimes be hard to distinguish what is truly real. AI plays an ever-growing role in our lives by not only taking over tasks but also contributing creatively, such as generating images and videos, further blurring our perception of what is ‘real.’

In the world of interior design, and at the trade fairs of the moment, we are witnessing an explosion of vibrant, contrasting colours that clash with one another. These colourful outbursts seem, in a way, to reflect today’s society. Everyone seems eager to make their voice heard, some even louder than others. In my trend book TH SpringSummer 2026, you can see this sense of individuality, of making yourself visibly present, translated into a theme that combines powerful, passionate, and even sensual colours and shapes.

After weeks of intensive preparation, the time is almost here: the TH home trend book for Spring/Summer 2026 will soon be on the shelves. But before putting the finishing touches on it, a short break was needed.
