Comforting memories through appreciation of the natural qualities brought to life by artisans is the theme for 2022.
This year designers are pulling inspiration from the Minimalism, Mid-Century Modern, and Boho design styles. Also, Organic Modern style is all about designing a raw and refined space that subtly layers organic elements, forms, and hues against a backdrop of sophisticated and modern simplicity.
Though trends are very transient, this year we are living in a world in which digital is merging with offline. Even if this might appear disconcerting for some, look closer as it opens new possibilities to connect with nature.
Technology now allows printing companies to develop sustainable alternatives that are in tune with nature. Technology has also allowed for rendering specific light waves visible to the human eye, for instance, blue, red and ultraviolet light that enhance mood. The Hyper Nature trend allows for bright and lucid colours with blurred nuances of green and grey.
Macramé, in keeping with the craft movement, terry, summer tweeds, bouclés, light coloured plaids and stripes are all key for textiles in 2022. The craftsmanship for unique finishes or handwoven textiles is now greatly in demand, each piece evocative of unique not assembly line.
