Trend brief



This trend shows how our own difficulties along with the anniversary of WW1 influences a colour pallet of more neutral tones of greys and browns but with the promised hope of a brighter future we see metallic colours coming through with a subtle but striking effect.
The materials are more raw- such as woods, stone and old metal. Fabrics will be a lot tougher
Prints will be a much softer element in this trend; worn mis-prints as though eaten away over time, light floral or vine-work, like damask patterns of old.
Handmade, restoration and DIY are also aspects within this trend making a simple homemade creation a unique bespoke design piece in the world of urban living.
