The HiemTextil Trade Show is an exposition that takes place in London at the FranklinTill Studio to bring together professionals in the industry. This year, the theme is "The Future is Urban," an already well-recognized concept in modern society. With the endless cycle of possibilities and boundless approach of design, there is much to explore at an exposition like this. The setting focuses the concept around several conferences, iconic colors, spaces, and installations that simulate experiences through senses.
A notable installation is 'The Green Workspace' by Sprinklr that features desks and computers within a greenhouse environment to emulate the "biophilic design." Another example of an exhibition at the HiemTextil Trade Show would be 'The Micro Home,' by Studiomama -- a space that sits at 13-square meters and can be consistently rearranged.
