My friends love to hear me talk about attending trade shows They ’ re always asking me when the next trade show is, what I expect to see or taste, which gadgets were the coolest, who was the most fun person to inter view and especially if I see any celebrities – how tall are they, were they nice, what they might have said to me. Years ago, I met a relatively unknown chef named Fabio V iviani at the thennamed Home Show and a friend who has a huge crush on him has never forgiven me Just kidding I did make sure to get a photo of him the last time I saw him for her
I always tell my friends that going to trade shows is fun, but it ’ s also a lot of work And walking And more walking And more walking There’s a whole city of hard-working people behind the scenes who are on duty year-round to make the shows successful Some of those wonderful people are in marketing with the trade associations These are the people in charge of wrangling with the press – as much work as herding cats, as they say
The press room is of ten my refuge at trade shows. Sometimes, it ’ s the first time in hours that I get to sit down There’s coffee and sof t drinks (the Diet Coke goes fast), of ten nibbles Many of us use the time to blog about the show, write notes or network with colleagues I ’ ve conducted a fe w inter vie ws in the press room bec ause the atmosphere is so calm. There isn’t competition between members of the press We of ten ask each other what the best booth is to check out
It ’ s always fun to actually meet the people I’ve emailed or spoken to outside of the actual trade show Then each year when the trade show rolls around, it ’ s a friend ly face among the masses
Debbie Teschke has been at the top of my list of trade show friends for the past four years Debbie retired at the end of December as senior manager, public relations and communications for the International Housewares Association
“After 33 years, 31 Shows, hundreds of press releases and countless press events, I have decided to see what life is like on the other side of housewares and plan to retire Dec 31,” she wrote in a farewell email “ W hen I walked into the IHA office for the first time on Nov. 20, 1991, I never imagined I had found a job and company I would like well enough to spend more than half of my life with I have made some wonderful friends over the years and have especially enjoyed working with you It has been a pleasure seeing you at the Show each year and helping out when you call or email the rest of the year IHA has grown as an association over the last five years, and I hope you will continue to think of them as a resource for consumer purchase and lifestyle trends, new products and all things home and housewares IHA is The Home Authority ”
Although I had been editor at Kitchenware News & Housewares Review years ago, Debbie knew that I was jumping head first into a different wor ld when I came back Since I had missed that year ’ s show, she invited me to attend the Chief Housewares Executive SuperSession, where I could meet many of the executives I would be bugging for inter views and also get a good grip on what the industr y trends were She introduced me to a few people and I felt comfortable enough to introduce myself to people I learned a lot at that event.
Then, at The Inspired Home Show, I looked for ward to working with Debbie, her helpful staff and the dedicated volunteers She’s always been a calming force when I got frazzled and a helpful guide when I needed direction She’s always been professional and friendly I’m gonna miss her!
Fare thee well, Debbie And keep in touch KN

bigfoot of
Since its first patent in 2011, the concept has been innovative, even revolutionar y : making the most of ever y available space – even where it doesn’t seem to exist – thanks to the genius of the modular sliding and concealed system by Protek, an Italian company with an extensive experience in designing and creating pocket frames and systems for sliding doors and windows
Bigfoot is a patented system, 100 percent Made in Italy, unique in the wor ld and cutting-edge, capable of creating spaces that can change throughout the day and furniture that transforms to expand, multiply, configure and conceal spaces – all while maximizing comfort
Bigfoot can be integrated into walls during the design or renovation stages of a property, adjacent to an existing wall, or as a standalone, self-supporting structure It requires no building permit and is available in two versions: Architectural, for paneling in dr ywall or similar, and Interior, with the predisposition for paneling in boiserie or rigid panels
Modular furnishing system adds new finishes
It is precisely in order to meet interior design trends and the tastes of customers, who are increasingly oriented toward a blend of furniture, architecture and color that Protek is expanding its palette of available finishes, assisting designers and architects in achieving perfect integration with their interiors
From cooler to warmer tones, the laminate offer is enriched with new greys and beiges to which are added the four wood-effect finishes that dec line the colours of oak and two vibrant and intense colors such as Maggese (Fallow) and Verde Pino (Pine Green).
From the warm earthy and sandy tones of Luxor and Arizona beiges to the marine atmospheres evoked by Blu Fes and Azzurro Naxos, from the intensity of Jaipur and Askja Reds and Kashmir Yellow to the refined and discreet elegance of the olive shades of Verde Comodoro (Green Comodoro) and the mud of Cacao Orinoco, the new range is capable of satisfying the most diverse demands in terms
of interior design In fact, the number of Fenix finishes rises to 19, new-generation surfaces that are striking for their super-matt appearance and pleasant sof t-touch effect, as well as for their great technical properties such as the thermal repair abilit y of sur face micro-scr atc hes and their being fingerprint-proof
These also inc lude two proposals that echo the aesthetics of metal surfaces: the warm golden hues of Oro Cortez and the stainless-steel charm of Acciaio Hamilton
Designed to meet the new needs of metropolitan dwellers, their lifestyles and the times of day, each Bigfoot module is a concealed furnishing element and complement that conceals from view what is not in use, without additional bulk and in the name of unparalleled formal c leanliness Va

Terratinta reinterprets tradition
An emblematic name for Sartoria’s new creation: Savoir Faire is not a simple homage to tradition, to the Italian savoir-faire of that sector of ceramics that has made histor y in the industr y, but a reinterpretation with the canons of modernity For the Terratinta Group brand, the past is not an end point, but a comma to continue a stor y with new content
Going against the trend of mass industrialisation, the Savoir Faire collection recreates the unique aesthetics of handmade tiles by drawing inspiration from the craf tsmanship of artisan workshops, from that style made of passion and care that only the true craf tsman is capable of transforming into a fascinating, living surface These products, inspired by the fascinating imperfections of handmade ceramics, express an authenticit y that only the human touch can confer
Each tile becomes a canvas that tells a stor y, enhancing the narrative power of surfaces and materials The iridescent colour shades offer intense and changing tones, ideal for creating intimate, cosy and authentic environments Savoir Faire invites you to rediscover the imprint of man, celebrating craf tsmanship beyond fashion and time
Ceramic, Clay, Aquifer, Mint, Emerald, Lagoon, Chutney and Smoke are the elegant and sophisticated colors of this collection which, as has long become the philosophy of the Terratinta Group, combine perfectly with the group ’ s other proposals to create highly customisable solutions with a multi-sensor y aesthetic KN

Refin was one of the first ceramic tile companies to enter into dialogue with the wor ld of design, in a pioneering process marked over the years by prestigious collaborations with artists, architects and designers who have produced interesting experiments with the material.
R e v i e w i n g t h e p ro j e c t s b o r n f rom t h e s e c re a t i ve endeavours, in Massimiliano Adami ’ s Beside mosaic, the company saw an opportunity to return strongly contemporar y to illustrate the decorative potential of porcelain stoneware in a new way
S o, 1 0 ye a r s a f t e r t h e B e s i d e c o l l e c t i on we n t o u t o f production, Refin is launching a re-edition of the product to pay homage to the design genius of Massimiliano Adami, who marked a revolution in the tradition of ceramic mosaics with that project
Refin updates popular design
motif in the typical checked structure of the back side of tiles He had then enhanced that pattern by breaking it down and then reassembling it by remixing the geometr y of the mosaic and decorating it with the colors and reflections of ceramic glazes. Playing with geometries, shapes and colors, he had thus created a totally new mosaic concept, a creative a n d
absolutely innovative idea
inspirational and distinctive element of the Beside project, was a characteristic trait of ceramic products in years gone by,
stoneware products and related production technologies
The founding element of the design, the pattern that made the B-side of the tiles so special and interesting, was
The idea for Beside was born out of a study of porcelain s t on e w a re i n i t s e s s e n c e – a n d i n p a r t i c u l a r f rom t h e obser vation of the back of the tile – the usually hidden and unexplored B-side (hence the name B-side) that unexpectedly became the protagonist of that collection Massimiliano Adami had the genius to see a decorative
soon gone, and for this reason production of the collection had ceased
Stimulated by the potential offered by new production technologies and driven by the interest that the extraordinarily contemporar y Beside project has continued to arouse in the
designers embarked on an attentive reinterpretation of the original project
As with all re-editions of icons of design of the past, the challenge for Refin was to preser ve the original design while giving it a new reason to live.
Upside is an evolved re-elaboration of the Beside collection: the Refin laborator y re-interpreted the project by applying n e w p ro d
expanded, ultra-decorative range with a remarkable expressive impact
The result is a re-edition that retains the designer’s stylistic signature and exploits the full force of his idea: an evolved and creative update of Adami’s mosaic that takes its geometr y and makes it potentially infinite, applying it to larger formats, thus revolutionising its perception
T h u s t h e re v
collection that lef t its mark on the wor ld of ceramic tile mosaics was brought back to life
The extraordinarily versatile palette satisfies ever y design requirement: the eight colors spanning the entire color spectrum were selected with the utmost sensitivity to design and trends in order to create lively atmospheres, offer refined contrasts and suggest cosy experiences
The two shades of light and dark blue – Sky and Blue –are intense and at the same time relaxing Green is a reminder of nature that convey s feelings of serenit y Yellow is an energetic mustard yellow with slight hints of earthy nuances Ruby red envelops with its warm and sophisticated touch Pink is a delicate powder pink, refined and contemporar y Black and white have tone-on-tone lines that make it an elegant and sophisticated option
The evolution of technology has made it possible to produce the decorative pattern in the form of a continuous lattice with larger formats, 30x60 and 60x120, which add strength to the geometr y of the decoration and allow the tiles to be placed side by side with an uninterrupted laying of the lattice, to design continuous scenographies that catalyse the eye
The 30x30 Mosaic, the only format of the original design, is composed of randomly matched 5x5 tiles in the grid W ith the new Brick 6 3x29 it is also possible to move the gr id through staggered lay ing, gener ating a par ticular l y dynamic look to animate walls with a touch of originality
An explosion of color, graphics and brilliance – Upside e x p re s s e s a l l t h e p o t e n t i a l o f p o rc e l a i n s t on e w a re by combining an experimental attitude, a creative language and technical expertise made in Refin KN
