4. Biophilia - A Step Further in Green Architecture
The post-pandemic desire to connect with nature has made the biophilia trend highly appealing. This trend goes beyond green elements like plants and natural wood or stone furniture, by incorporating architectural materials inspired by nature, such as tiles with botanical patterns, to add a fresh, vibrant touch to a space.
A prime example is the growing use of Italian-made botanical-style decorative tile collections as an alternative to wallpaper. The floral and leaf patterns are hand-drawn by Italian artists and use multi-layered 4D printing technology to create incredibly lifelike images.
