Our Newest Additions: B+N Iconic Panels
Carousel
If we had a design world of our own, everything would be beautiful nonsense—crafted with intention and a touch of creative madness.
This year at BDNY, our Idyllwild in Wonderland booth transformed the surreal into the sophisticated—where fantasy met function and elegance embraced eccentricity. Drawing from global design movements, tactile storytelling, and the nostalgic whimsy of childhood imagination, our 2025 hospitality vision finds beauty in duality: moody yet joyful, maximal yet mindful. Through expressive materials and refined craft, we're celebrating art, wonder, and emotion...and a broader movement across hospitality design toward spaces that are immersive, human-centered, and alive with character.
Join us as we travel down the rabbit hole into five trends shaping the next era of hospitality design (and our BDNY booth itself).
1. Natural Stage
Earthly Elegance
A new era of natural luxury unfolds as cork, stone, and wood reclaim the spotlight—balancing raw tactility with quiet refinement. Inspired by WGSN’s # NatureLed and Quiet Patterns narratives, designers are embracing elemental materials and tactile finishes that reconnect us to the earth—lowering stress, softening light, and awakening the senses.
Like stepping into a shadowed grove, every nature-inspired texture in our BDNY display—from oceanic marbling in Wavelet to the metallic-specked surfaces of Sardinia Cork, dark to light wood grains of Saw Mark or Tanglewood, and sculpted acoustic forms of Muratto’s Urban Edge acoustic panels (pictured)—celebrates nature as both medium and muse.
These types of natural materials bring an organic rhythm to hospitality design, where both moody cool tones and warm, natural hues coexist in textured harmony. Tactile, renewable, and innately restorative, each transform the familiar into the poetic—inviting guests to pause, reflect, and feel.
2. Floral & Forest Reverie
Romantic Escapism
This season, hospitality design takes a walk through the woods and returns renewed. From the decorative legacy of William Morris to WGSN’s Romantic Revival, this aesthetic highlights a resurgence of botanical pattern and crafted detail. Vintage florals, curling vines, and mushroom-inspired motifs capture nature’s quiet magic—rooted in heritage, yet reimagined for today's interiors.
In our BDNY Wonderland, every flourish—from the luminous tracery of Empress Filigree (pictured) to the layered wildflowers spread of Idyllwild—reinterprets nature through a lens of refined artistry and freeform expression.
These old-made-new garden scrolls reinterpret the grace of historic textiles through a modern lens—blending classic craftsmanship with nature’s quiet mystique and a trace of gothic elegance.
3. Order & Whimsy
Geometry with a Twist
Patterns like Solara by Versa Wallcovering (pictured) transform feature walls into stunning interpretations of sea and sky. Digitally printed on mylar with dimensional embossing, its abstract wave-like surface ripples with light, evoking motion and depth.
Alongside other BDNY debuts like Simply Geo and Form Fiber, these eclectic line-shifting patterns reveal how precision and play can coexist in elegant balance—fluid structure and zen in motion.
4. Sustainably Surreal
Eco-Luxe by Nature
At BDNY, Fractal Bark (pictured) by 13&9 Design—a PVC-free wallcovering from the Renaturation collection—embodies nature’s geometry through rhythmic patterning and tactile depth. Research shows that viewing fractal forms can reduce stress by up to 60%, making this design as restorative as it is refined.
Other eco spotlights include bio-based Circon wallcoverings such as the Tanglewood and Samba, each echoing the harmony between innovation and nature. Paired with TerraLeather and TerraPebble, our biodegradable Hyphyn™ vinyls, these sustainable surfaces feel grounded and ethereal, shaped by nature’s mystical allure.
5. Neo-Nostalgia
Past Futures Colliding
Within our Idyllwild in Wonderland display, Rossio (pictured), a PVC-free Type II wallcovering, captures that dreamlike duality. Its circular, metallic cork surface reflects light like shifting time—part retro rhythm, part modern sculpture.
From arches to ripples, retro patterns like Stitched Stripe, with its tailored vertical lines, Soledad’s serene tactility, and the sculpted geometry of Form and Form Fragments bridge eras with ease—turning nostalgia into motion and history into design’s next chapter.
