Bahar Korçan and her Alternative Existences at EVTEKS

EVTEKS, one of the world's two largest home textile trade fairs, was held at CNR EXPO İstanbul for the 25th time. Famous designer Bahar Korçan set the fashion and trend theme of EVTEKS as "Alternative Existences" for this year. Home textile products prepared with the trends of Silent Room, Playful Room, Tasteful Room and Artificially Natural Experiences under the "Alternative Existences" theme were displayed at the Trend Area on April 23-27.

Stating that her designs for EVTEKS have contributed to her vision, Bahar Korçan added that this project had been a source of inspiration for her other works. Indicating that she had created 'Alternative Existences' together with a team of 5, Korçan said, "We want to convey our predictions in the best possible way emphasizing all the ideas we have come up with on home textiles to the visitors at the Trend Area to be set up at EVTEKS. This project has been a source of excitement and happiness for us. Since the beginning of the project, it had been such an enjoyable work that the outcome turned out very beautifully."

‘Creative Perspective’ on Alternative Trends

With the 'Creative Perspective,' the sense of tranquility in a colorful world will crack the door open at EVTEKS. Unexpected, bold, outside the box, free and innocent patterns as if created by the hands of a child will take to the trend area at the exhibition. Bahar Korçan's 'Creative Perspective,' combining the vibrant and unique blend of colors, traditional power of the craftsmanship and the smart design approach, brings the handcrafted stitching details, rounded lines and curves, random and hand-drawn geometric touches to the forefront. By combining crafting techniques with design and material and blending knitted and jacquard fabrics, jacquard ribbons, tweeds and patterns with comfort, this trend reflecting the lively rhythm of the innocence of a child's world and expressing the realm of imagination will make an indelible impression on the minds.

The futuristic lines of the Natural-Artificial Experience trend draw attention

The awareness of how limited natural resources are and the ultimate desire to transform them according to current demands are the driving forces behind the birth of the Natural-Artificial Experience trend. Fabrics produced with threads derived from recycled or upcycled products or with raw yarns used in hand-woven products catch tremendous attention in this trend.
Bahar Korçan invites us to make sensitive choices thinking about the world in the face of developing technology and sheds light to making use of technology with the collective consciousness of human and nature in her repetitive patterns and geometric shapes, transparent glitters, polished and bright objects with futuristic textures, 3D prints and reliefs at EVTEKS Trend Area.
