CIFF Guangzhou long ago established itself as an early indicator of commercial interior solutions and trends for the New Year and beyond. Traditionally, office interiors trends have started in the East, quickly spreading to the West in Europe and the Americas. With 4,900+ exhibitors and 363,000+ professional visitors, incrementally dwarfing other regional industry tradeshows, CIFF is the proven industry leading tradeshow for what’s new and what’s next in the
#commercialinteriors industry.
Let’s take a look at key trends and take-a-ways to potentially serve as a foundation for what’s next for our industry.
KEY TAKEAWAYS

ADDITIONAL HIGHLIGHTS

- A Focus on Healthcare Solutions – This year’s show featured a strong focus on smart healthcare solutions in response to a growing demand for innovative elderly care and medical furniture solutions.
RECAP
- Commercial interior needs are changing. Moving forward, workspaces need to adapt on demand to on-site and remote individual and team needs.
- Commercial interiors need to extend beyond the workplace to include alternative places we work, learn, and heal. Traditional workspaces and alternative workspaces are equally important in the future. Designing beyond the primary space needs to include ancillary and secondary space needs is essential.
- The definition of “sustainability” extends beyond materials to include production processes. Incorporating sustainable materials and recycling products at end-of-life are still important, however the definition of “sustainability” now extends beyond product to include businesses and people. How can design and tools help companies compete at a higher level while reimaging how employees work to ensure the long-term viability of workers in, and supporting, the workplace?
