Craving
extravagance
Art Deco is one of the most significant sources
of inspiration for the Spring/Summer 2019
interior design trends. The look portrays a
craving for luxur y and extravagance.
BY HELLE MATHIESEN
Art Deco is a significant source of inspiration for cur-
rent interior design trends. The designs are packed
with colours and circular shapes - including curves,
zigzag patterns, half-arches and cylinder shapes. Ge-
nerally, we can expect to see a feminine and rounded
look. Mirror and relief effects, tiles, three-dimensiona-
lity, fringes, optical effects and ribbed glass are among
other characteristic examples in this theme along with
golden metals.
- The trend is both modern and retrospective. The new
RICE
direction will build on previous trends with materials
such as gold and marble, now in far more colourful,
decorated and feminine versions, trend expert Anja
Bisgaard Gaede from SPOTT explains to NU in a chat
about the home interior trends for the upcoming sea-
son. According to her, the new direction is a manifesta-
tion of our yearning for luxury and extravagance in our
homes, following several years of soft minimalism and
sensible spending.
Colours such as pink, dark and deep old rose, dark yel-
low and grey play together beautifully and can be pep-
ped up with strong reds or blue-green hues.
- Generally, we will typically see a desire to stage a

room with everything from walls, ceilings, and floors

to lighting, furniture and plants each playing a diffe-
rent part. Carpets and wallpapers continue their revi-
val, but we will also see the return of original details
like room dividers and wall linings, says Anja Bisgaard
Gaede.

drawn into the home with a commercial colour palette
centred on yellow. Leather, wood, quilted textiles, ce-
ramics and paper are among the widely used materials
in this nature-inspired trend.
- The inspiration is drawn from the beauty of the sun
