2009 Fall Color Trends

FALL 2009 COLOR LINE UP

What is your favorite "NEW" color?

THINK ROMANTIC cheerful – subtle – dreamy

The 50s and 60s are given a contemporary interpretation with fresh colours, filigree shapes and the finest of details. Relaxed zest for life meets dreamy romanticism with a wealth of floral interpretations. In addition to flowers and plants, insects are also one of the key sources of inspiration for shapes, designs and plastic surface moulding. Fine drawings and graphics adorn fragile glass, porcelain and textiles.Perforated patterns, ruptured edges, glass engravings, subtle meshing and wickerwork, enamel, rhinestones and glass blocks attest to high-quality craftsmanship and create a magical, jolly mood.

STAY ESSENTIAL strict – sculptural – expressive

Minimal shapes and modern ornamentation fuse together in milky-neutral tones. Design focuses on the essentials; functionality dominates with clear lines. Organic silhouettes that appear to be cast are becoming increasingly important. The demand for expressive materiality and high-impact surfaces shapes the style: practicality corresponds with decorative breaks, roughness and modulations. The characteristics of heavy lace, plastic cloques and contrasting matte and gloss effects are transferred from textiles to paper, porcelain, glass and leather – plus matte, aged metal with processed, modified surfaces and distinctive stone looks.

An impressive challenge!

ENJOY CALM lively – simple – authentican

Energy-charged colour scheme conveys a connection with nature, creativity and a zest for life. Simplification and individuality are called for and the desire for authenticity is made clear. Everyday design comes into focus, bizarre one-offs become favourite pieces. a modern vintage look is playfully created through unconventional combinations: wood, paper, feathers, ceramics, plastics and jute are juxtaposed equally. stripes, lines, checks and floral form animated surfaces with mixed patterns and complemented by stitch bonding, marbling and multicoloured effects. Handcrafted and painted create the personal touch. This is how simple styling can be!

FEEL GRACE charming – couture – feminine

The new classic is exquisite, luxurious and laid-back, all at the same time. a modern concept is reflected in light colours, graceful decorations, filigree details and surprising combinations of materials. ornamental items are significantly refined; surfaces are decorated with art deco, art nouveau and asian motifs, light graphic designs or unusual animal images. these are accompanied by lace designs, braiding and pleats borrowed from haute couture. seductive gold, delicate porcelain, crystal, mother-of-pearl, silver and exotic woods with perfect surface finishes (polished or with high-gloss varnish); precious stones for high-impact jewellery, flowing and shimmering textiles, burnt-out fabrics and velours, ultra-smooth to finely modulated leather…who can resist?
