We’re all so tired of winter that I’m predicting color forecasting will be bright and there will be a lot of it this spring. Fortunately, here at Casart Coverings, we’re not fickle with trends but we like color and styles that last. Here are just a few examples of what we look forward to for 2010:
The Washington Post suggests a splash of color for forecating with one of my favorites, Caribbean Blue.
Pantone links you to their interactive fashion report on color.
CB2 announces “A Bright New Decade” on their 2010 catalog.
This interior view just happens to remind me of one of our styleboards using Orange Casart Faux Linen reusable wallcovering:
AkzoNobel, a Sri Lankan color forecasting firm “predicts a move towards colours that are lighter in mood and more optimistic in feeling – shades to lift spirits given the dark and uncertain times that we have been through. This renewed feeling of freshness is the driving characteristic of the palettes.” Therein, they forecast “California Blue” to be “the Colour of the Year which is an airy and optimistic blue that symbolizes infinite horizons, new beginnings, renewed energy and a positive dynamic. This clear, transparent shade encapsulates a sense of purity, serenity and goodness – a hopeful and chemical free colour full of possibilities.” This picture takes me away to a surreal peaceful place, similar to our Bridge to Anywhere post.
I think there is a bright future ahead.
