We Like Tartan!

Who would have thought that we would trend on Tartan for interiors! Tartan is back. Truth is its a very traditional pattern that has emerged in a modern way. Many interior designers have come up wtih concepts that include wallpapers, fabrics and accessories in many different plaids.. It does look good, however.. I think it can give more of cozy winter look to your home! What do you think?

We Like Handwoven!

Loving the Eclectic style trend that is combined with Handwoven/ embroidered items! Simply beautiful, and the use of colors are endless! This style has emerged century’s back and has evolved as well as spread along the way into many designs. Embroidery has been given an importance since the beginning, to some culture’s it represented higher social status in different societies, others associated it with appeal as well as beauty. Among the popular countries that practised emroidery was : Turkey, china, egypt, Iran, Palestine, Ukraine, Kazakhistan and many more. Many garmets were perfected with different types of emroideries such as belts, shoes, jackets, Kaftans, skirts, and even flags.

Modern canvas works has been introduced to furniture items and textiles such as pillows, throws, bed covers and lots more! Take a look at some of the inspiring works!

We Like Fishscales!

Alexander Mcqueen

Fishscales? yes why not.. Fashion’s doing it why cant interiors follow! Here’s a few examples of how its been applied. Mostly works as tiles, and works perfectly as a decorative element in your livingspace, bar or even bathroom. Some might find it weird, but truth is its different!!

At the bar, you can sit back and enjoy the minimilasm of the space, and still have a bit of effect + color to complete the look. It could look risky combing colors together, so far its been looking neat. Have an accent wall closer to your dining area, why not! 71762
