Living space of the future: the bathroom as a holistic room
Who says a bathroom is just a room?
The Pop up my Bathroom trend exhibition highlighted the bathroom as a holistic experience: it revealed how walls, floors, colours and light interact in harmony with sanitary objects – and how the bathroom can be so much more than a purely functional space. Three trend houses, curated by trend researcher Frank A. Reinhardt, showcased bathroom design at ISH 2025 in perfect alignment with human needs.
Visitors gained insights into the latest developments, supported by exhibitors such as Axor, burgbad, Bette, Duravit, Geberit, Hansgrohe, Ideal Standard, Kaldewei, Laufen, Roca and Villeroy & Boch. At Pop up my Bathroom 2025, the bathroom even became a stage: actors brought the three trend houses to life on every day of the fair, demonstrating how people set the standard for the modern bathroom.
The three trend houses: Lab, Living & Lifestyle
Bathroom Lab
New colours, new material combinations and future studies – the Catwalk of Innovations in the Bathroom Lab showcased what the bathroom of tomorrow might look like. In addition, visitors could discover a selection of ultra-flat shower surfaces – including the longest of its kind.
Living Bathroom
What goes on behind the bathroom wall? Key product solutions and the latest innovations were brought to life in the Living Bathroom. Visitors could explore the systems that ensure comfort, functionality and design interact seamlessly in the modern bathroom.
Lifestyle Bathroom
Here, renowned designers shaped bathroom culture with stylish and ergonomic concepts. Lifestyle-oriented bathroom design was showcased by Stefan Diez for Kaldewei, Antonio Citterio for Duravit and many other distinguished designers.
