Retro

“Grease” is definitely the word this season with the re-emergence of the uber cool 1950s RETRO look. Defined by splashes of colour, bold prints and over-sized, innovative shapes, the trend provides a definite respite from the neutral shades and contours that have dominated the design of interior fashion for some time now. To re-create the look, think American diner style kitchens with colourful swivel chairs and laminate counter tops, and wholesome, homely living rooms with oversized armchairs and distinctively shaped tables. Wallpaper designs should be bold and beautiful, floral designs and polka dot patterns being particularly typical of this era.
