Trend concept boards

Interior Design Classes this term have covered the development of new trends. Trends are set in motion 3 or 4 years in advance of them hitting the high streets, from market research through to publishing for the trade and then manufacture for the high street.  My student groups have been putting their own colour palettes together to develop their own individual trend concept.  They have enjoyed the process, feeling liberated to explore different colours and producing a brand new palette.

Lorna wanted her palette to express luxury and extravagance.

Kimberley's palette of very soft colours put her in the mood for an ethereal concept.

This concept board is by Jo, using berry reds and greens, complimentary colours on the colour wheel.

 Natasha's concept is hot and spicey!

Casilda called her palette 'Trout' long before she found these images to portray it.

Classes are currently taking place at Mandeville Hall, Kimbolton and Swavesey College, Cambridge.  If you have a minimum of 6 people interested in running a day workshop - let me know - and I will arrange to run one for you.
