Discover with Pytóncontract, the HIX Fair winter edition 2024
Introduction
The HIX London Event, or HIX Fair, is an event dedicated to hospitality. The HIX Fair (HIX London Event) is a relatively new event in the hospitality industry trade show calendar. Although it does not have as extensive history as other established events, it has developed rapidly to meet the needs of the sector. Last year, HIX welcomed 4,280 guests to London’s Business Design Centre for a true celebration of everything that makes hotels amazing. Bringing together the hotel community for two days of talks, parties, installations and a curated exhibitions of over 160 leading design brands, this ever-changing design experience provides a platform for the latest and greatest hotel interior experiences, welcoming the entire supply chain, from architects and designers to investors, operators, specifiers, project managers and developers.
The following is a closer look at the show and its features

Pytón at HIX Fair winter edition 2024
For Pytón it is an event to strengthen and make new contacts. Imbued with an informal atmosphere at the Pytóncontract’s stand we offered a glass of Spanish wine and some snacks to maintain that relaxed/festive touch in a professional environment.
We presented our materials following the motto of the fair: ‘fabrics turning spaces into places’ in collage paintings made by a Barcelona artist, Ana Huguet. Each painting represented one of the five colour trends for 2025:
Ray Flower
Future Dusk
Aquatic Awe
Trascendent Pink
Cherry Lacquer
The 5 product ranges that make up our collection are listed in reverse colour order:
AFRODITA: high quality nubuck leather.
DENVER: bouclé fabric.
AMERICA PROTEC: microfibre with a suede look of the highest quality and performance, available in 100 colours.
VANCOUVER FR blackout fabric + sheer TEIDE FR
DENIS FR: semi-matt nappa leather synthetic.
In two finished pieces, we highlighted the elastic microfibre (on the pouf) and the new embossed synthetic DEMETER FR (on the folding chair).
In the chest of drawers we also reproduced the 5 colour trends in materials and all the colourfulness of the AMERICA PROTEC microfibre.
The eucalyptus leaves, both natural and made in one of our eco-friendly fabric, stood out in the decoration.
Soon on our website, you will find the colour cards and their characteristics.
