Pre-Pandemic Design Trends Continue to Flourish (In spite of it all!)

Case GoodsCollectionsFurnitureInterior Design Trends

In case you haven’t noticed, things are changing in the interior design and luxury furnishings industries; just as they are in the rest of the world. While we’ve all experienced lockdowns, social distancing, and virtual meetings and encounters, pre-pandemic design trends have only grown stronger.

Speculation on why (perhaps folks had more time to figure stuff out better?) doesn’t really matter, though. No, what matters is that you know what the latest trends are and that you take advantage of when and where possible.

If you recall, the beginning of the year was an optimistic time. While the stunning Classic Blue was named the Pantone Color of the Year and, as we mentioned, Kravet was “all in” too, making it available in a variety of hues across their family of products. Beyond these, we recognized the potential viability of sustainable materials and offered some hot kitchen design trends we expected to see this year.

But then… Boom! We all got virused and most business ground to a halt. (Downer, much?)

Interior Design Trends from Kravet

And yet, it’s great to realize that not everyone was intimidated or went stagnant. As usual, Kravet is leading the way by jumping in with both feet and making it easier than ever for you to create the looks and feel your design clients are searching for.

From fabrics to furniture and from wallcoverings to trimmings, the recognized Leader is leading the way out of the valley of doom into which many of us feel like we’ve descended.

Modern Luxe Izu Collection from Kravet Fabrics

Have we already used the word “stunning”? Can it be used too often? Not when you see this line of couture fabrics! As described in their catalog:

“The [Modern Luxe Izu] collection of exclusively designed fabrics showcases the beauty of ancient Japanese art and time-honored traditional dyeing techniques. Drawing inspiration from art, culture, landscapes, and nature, Modern Luxe Izu is a dynamic assemblage of bold color, dramatic pattern, and sophisticated textures and qualities. Each of these beautiful fabrics captures the essence of decorative design with a refined balance between luxurious construction and natural elements.”

The line offers dramatic patterns coupled with sophisticated texture and quality, as well as striking colors that pay homage to time-honored Japanese Shibori dying techniques.

Mabley Handler Luxury Furniture from Kravet

The Mabley Handler Kravet Furniture collection offers 35 designs that celebrate the fresh, relaxing, and beach-chic style that the acclaimed husband and wife interior design team are best known for. Comprised of upholstery, case goods, and occasional furniture, the collection captures the essence of stylish living through laidback luxury.

With almost endless customization options, each piece in the Mabley Handler collection has the opportunity to become uniquely beautiful with tailored designs that span from the coast to the city. Designers can choose from seven specially-crafted quarter sawn and cerused oak finishes in a variety of tones from pale shell to deep midnight, providing a range of natural and organic looks. The collection’s grasscloth wallpaper, available in either a matte or light sheen finish, can be used to outfit bar tables, mirrors, cabinets, and drawers in a variety of hues to complete the layered look.

Thom Filicia’s new collection for Kravet takes a fresh approach to interior design, creating fabrics and furniture for how we live today. The collection has a relaxed, yet refined point of view, inspired by a sense of light and optimism. Filicia’s collection includes silhouettes that are both timeless and classic, exuding a sense of modern sophistication while feeling effortlessly livable.

The fabric collection, ALTITUDE, features printed linens, geometric velvets, and stylish embroideries, all in keeping with Filicia’s signature aesthetic. A blend of classic forms with unique textures, patterns, and colors create Filicia’s distinct perspective: chic design that’s both accessible and exceptional.

With the year we’re having so far, it might be natural to assume that everyone has reverted to some kind of holding pattern, waiting to see what happens next. That is simply not the way Kravet has chosen to approach the challenges placed before them. Nor have we, at TD Fall.

We remain open for business and will continue to share the design trends we believe will benefit you most as either an interior designer or furnishings retailer. Click here to… Get in touch with TD Fall today.
