BATIBOUW 2019 SIEMATIC IMPRESSES IN BRUSSELS WITH FRESH BOOTH CONCEPT The motto “Timeless by Tradition”, with which SieMatic is celebrating its 90th anniversary this year, was also the slogan at the “Batibouw” fair in Brussels: For the interested visitor to the fair booth, it was easy to see that transparent textile suspensions formed flowing spatial structures and that the floor plan thematised the number 90. The visitors’ reactions to the “fresh breeze” in the booth concept were consistently positive: no closed frame, but an openly accessible room with three kitchens in which the different style collections merged into one another. The sensitive composition with materials, colors, textures, lighting elements and an inspiring styling presented surprising kitchen designs that particularly appealed to “Generation Y” visitors who prefer high-quality, timelessly elegant, individual and affordable solutions. Based on what Belgian customers are most interested in, three PURE kitchen designs with a strong urban touch were shown at Batibouw. This makes it possible to experience that different lifestyles can also be perfectly combined and help to express the personal lifestyle of their residents. More than ever, the kitchen is not just a “kitchen”, but an important part of the entire living space.

Geesa Accessories
GEESA LAUNCHES THE NAXOS MODERN CLASSIC COLLECTION Accessories with a distinguished look that add style to your bathroom Geldrop, February 2019 – Following several modern collections like Nelio and Nemox, bathroom accessory manufacturer Geesa now presents a more classic variant: Naxos. The chrome accessories in this new collection stand out due to the sophisticated three-stage rosette, giving Naxos its classic look. The flowing lines and curved design are yet another feature of the collection. Naxos will fit perfectly into any modern classic bathroom area. Naxos, named after the Greek island in the Cyclades archipelago, adds style to your bathroom. The cascade of three discs in the rosette, gives Naxos accessories a traditional look, but with a modern twist. The combination of bright chrome with a frosted glass finish adds an extra touch of luxury. This new collection also fits perfectly into bathrooms decorated in the art-deco style. The Naxos range is of high quality and includes a tumbler holder, soap holder, soap dispenser, bath grips, towel ring, toilet paper holder, spare roll holder, wall hook and towel rails of 45 and 60 centimetres in length. These essential accessories bring comfort and ease of use to your bathroom and/or toilet area. Geesa is launching the chic Naxos collection in March 2019 at the leading ISH trade fair in Frankfurt. The Naxos collection will be available from June 2019.

Innovative Pedestrian Bridges
G
42
The City of São Paulo has few bridges only for cyclists and pedestrians. In front of the Bayer headquarters, the bridge is located where the Pinheiros river meets the Canal of Guarapiranga’s dam. By connecting both sides of the river, the bicycle path parallel to the river is extended, and citizens, Bayer’s employees and the community around become closer to the metro station.
There has been increasing awareness in recent years of the importance of infrastructure for pedestrians. These additions to the urban environment improve the quality of cities by connecting spaces and shortening travel distances, and their introduction can be beneficial not only to pedestrians but also to cyclists seeking a more environmentally friendly method of transport.
