2017 Trend Forecast: Futurology

Bespoke and machine-made techniques merge to deliver intricate details in a glamorous palette of celestial hues

Bespoke and machine-made production techniques team up to deliver a graceful look that respects the past while embracing the future. Moulded profiles, sensuous curves and sharp shapes in a restrained palette of celestial hues deliver a polished look that celebrates innovation, texture and craftsmanship. Gold, silver, brass and copper metallics feature in accessories, as threads woven into both fabrics and sculpted furnishings.

Geometric colours of deepest space, such as bottomless blues, lilac pinks and icy violets take shape against a backdrop of uninterrupted white. 

“Twisted and interlaced materials lend a woven appeal to both hard and soft furnishings throughout this trend”
