Gone are the days when perfect and smooth objects were in fashion, lively and fluorescent , without smudges or imperfections. Currently we have returned to appreciating the embossing in fabrics , the lines and decorations in the windows, the craftsmanship for small objects such as sculptures figurines , vases and dehydrated flowers to embellish worktops or shelves .
To put it in a trendy way, let’s move on with the “raw” furniture. Which means raw , unfinished , natural . Definitely one of a kind !
A return to the old style
They are certainly not new, they are fashions that were in the 20-30s of the last century. We perhaps remember, from our grandmothers’ homes, that glass was not beautiful , transparent, but scratched, especially when it came to jugs, glasses and vases. We also find the doors or the doors of the cupboards, which express that I see I don’t see which is definitely a bit retro style.
After that, cotton, the prince of textiles, from clothing to home fabrics, does not like smooth but rough, creased, embossed. texture is irregular and soft, forming like small dots and rising waves . With this process you can create coverings for cushions, bedspreads, blankets, even curtains. Coverings for benches and chairs, sofas and even blankets.
Vintage objects
As objects , small statues , vases and sculptures , the more artisanal they are, the more we like them. The handmade takes on value, with all its imperfections and originality. They are attacked antique shops, the markets and also, why not , the old cellars, to give life back to objects that have a story to tell on their surface. Each piece stands out, there is nothing the same, to put it in other words, handmade is the new luxury of modern furniture.
Finally, they are back in fashion neutral and opaque colors, like for the walls of the house, the slightly changing tones of the herbs and dried flowers can be combined with the context and the furniture. To be displayed in transparent vases, to be placed on shelves or to adorn chandeliers or furniture. Bright colors are no longer suitable, in favor of items that have that country style with a lived-in taste that goes well with even the most modern homes, to give them a taste of experience and warmth that is all natural .
