Orgatec 2026: esPattio Returns to Cologne Alongside Löffler ERGO

esPattio and Löffler ERGO: Two Brands, One Shared Vision

ORGATEC 2026 marked a particularly important milestone for esPattio and Forma 5 Group. For the first time, our brand shared a stand with Löffler ERGO, the German brand specialising in ergonomic seating and part of the group.

This joint participation provided an opportunity to present two complementary approaches that, from different perspectives, share the same ambition: to enhance people’s experiences in the spaces they inhabit and use every day.

On the one hand, Löffler ERGO brings its expertise in ergonomics, task seating and dynamic sitting, backed by a long-standing commitment to innovation and German manufacturing. Its renowned ERGO TOP technology, developed in collaboration with ergonomics specialists, embodies a philosophy that recognises movement as an essential part of sitting comfort and wellbeing.

On the other, esPattio brings a more expressive and emotional perspective through its soft seating collections. Solutions designed to bring life to waiting areas, collaborative spaces, breakout zones and informal environments, where design, comfort and personality come together to create more welcoming experiences.

The presence of both brands allowed us to demonstrate how different furniture solutions can work together within the same project, responding to the diverse ways people work, meet, focus and interact.

A shared vision that also reflects the evolution of Forma 5 Group and its commitment to building an increasingly comprehensive offering for professional spaces.

An Andalusian Courtyard in the Heart of Cologne: The Stand Design

If there is one thing that defines esPattio, it is its connection to the South. An identity inspired by the light, colours and warmth of Andalusia, seeking to bring the Mediterranean essence into contemporary spaces.

For this edition of ORGATEC, we wanted to bring that inspiration to Cologne through an exhibition concept developed by Jorge Herrera Studio. The starting point was the white villages of Andalusia: their whitewashed façades, lively courtyards, greenery climbing their walls and that unmistakable combination of simplicity, light and colour.

The result was a space that reinterpreted the atmosphere of a traditional Southern courtyard, inviting visitors to discover both brands’ collections in a warm and welcoming setting.

The large white surfaces evoked traditional Andalusian architecture, while the presence of bougainvillea introduced a touch of colour and nature. Handcrafted clay pieces added texture and authenticity, strengthening the connection with traditional craftsmanship and ceramic heritage.

One of the most distinctive features of the space was a ceramic altarpiece inspired by Triana, conceived as a symbolic meeting point between Seville and Nuremberg. Two places with their own distinctive cultural identities that, through this element, found a way to engage in dialogue within the same space.

Every detail helped create a recognisable atmosphere, where architecture, decoration and furniture came together to convey an approach to design that goes beyond purely aesthetic considerations.

We Continue Bringing the Essence of the South Beyond Our Borders.

Our participation in ORGATEC 2026 marks another step forward in esPattio’s journey towards an increasingly international presence. An opportunity to share our approach to design, connect with new industry professionals and continue exploring the possibilities offered by contemporary spaces.

We return from Cologne with fresh ideas, experiences and connections, but also with the satisfaction of having brought a little piece of our homeland to one of the industry’s leading international stages.

Because, wherever we go, there is something we always want to preserve: our way of understanding spaces through the light, colour and warmth of the South.

Thank you for joining us at ORGATEC 2026. See you at our next destination!
