Everything that happened at HIX 2025

It was great to be back at the Business Design Centre in Islington. It is such an iconic venue in the commercial interiors world, and there was a real buzz to the two days. It felt like the entire community was out in full force and we had a really busy time full of catching up with friends old and new. All the exhibitors made such a fantastic effort and it really created a wonderful atmosphere and environment for the visitors.

We showcased our two brand new fabric collections, Oruga and Segunda, and they went down a storm. The reaction was fantastic and we have been busy sending out a bunch of shade cards and samples this week to customers that have yet to receive them.

We also had a sneak peak of our brand new Rizada collection, which comes out in January. It’s a sumptuous chenille velvet that is soft, luxurious and ideal for all hospitality and commercial environments. Available in a range of 20 colours, we can’t wait to launch it in the new year and we have a list of customers to send shade cards to as soon as we take them into stock.

Textures were the theme of our stand. We wanted to showcase all the different textures and tones we have to offer, predominantly from our soft fabric and woven collections. We have worked tirelessly over the last three years to increase our range of textures, and we had so many compliments on it all. Stay tuned for more to come in 2026.
