Laura Fletcher is New House's amazing weave designer and also in charge of our new roller blind accessory collection. She is also our trend expert.
Most of New House's collections usually last 3 years, so whatever we're doing, we often ask Laura to create a few mood boards. Our major work this year is our new roller blind and accessory collection, so Laura has made mood boards for the mid-point of these collections, which is Autumn/Winter 2013 - 14 :
Precious Cosmos : Inspiration is drawn from the surfaces and textures of the
moon and our solar system. A new play on light and dark shades and a theme that
is both striking and dramatic.
Colour Dark shimmering tones of midnight blue and sepia are
lightened against smoky greys, copper and sea grass. A timeless palette between
shadow and light.
Rustic Retreat : Natural materials
are enriched with luscious yarns and landscapes, creating a mood of warmth and
comfort. The mood creates a fun, relaxed and simple atmosphere for everyday living.
Colour A collection of
comforting, mid tone colours, honey and oat tones mix with candied lime, zesty
coral and warm orange.
Tender Escape : A soft elegant
mood that takes its inspiration from the wintery shapes of nature. Think of
bare trees creating intricate lace-like patterns against the sky or crisp,
frost-covered foliage. Combine these motifs with ultra soft yarns and fur to
create a look of understated luxury. A mood to cocoon yourself in
Colour A muted palette of
vegetal soft greys and taupes that have faded with time. Pigments of tea
stained neutrals are used with mink, washed sand and limestone greys.
