Regular price $545.00 Save $-545.00Excl. GST
PANTONEVIEW home + interiors 2022 Digital book Involved, Resolved, Evolved
As we begin to reset our lives, we look with new eyes toward an unknown future. Grounded by our desire for safety, security and well-being, we assess what is of value. Anchoring ourselves in a positive outlook, we draw on our ingenuity, creativity, resiliency and flexibility to refocus differently and find inventive ways to move forward. Healthier living and the comforts of simpler pleasures take center stage as does a desire for clarity and a less-is-more approach to design. Shared origins connect to humanity in new ways as we transform the narratives of the past into modern tales. A soothing, bucolic way of living appeals as do the colors and patterns of pristine wildwoods. We venture out on road trips to encounter rocky hills and wild lakes while also innovating, activating, and unleashing our imaginations in sculpted metallics and repunk’d brights that break boundaries, embrace technology and explore a digital universe brimming with possibilities. PANTONE® VIEW home + interiors 2022 speaks to these design dualities with eight storylines and palettes plus updates of four key palettes from PANTONEVIEW home + interiors 2021, offering a comprehensive vision of the future anchored by what we want to keep and foster, and inspired by what we want to invent, create, and experiment with.

PANTONEVIEW home + interiors 2021 Color innovation and transformation with cotton swatch standards & PANTONEVIEW home + interiors 2022 Digital book Involved, Resolved, Evolved
As our creativity unfolds to fashion a future in new shapes and hues, we assume a positive outlook, drawing on our ingenuity, creativity, resiliency and flexibility to refocus differently and find inventive ways to move forward. Our combination PANTONEVIEW home + interiors 2021 + PANTONEVIEW home + interiors 2022 forecast package speaks to this new design vision, one that is simultaneously anchored by what we want to keep and foster and inspired by what we want to invent, create and experiment with. Healthier living and the comforts of simpler pleasures take center stage as does a desire for clarity and a less-is-more approach to design. Shared origins connect to humanity in new ways as we transform the narratives of the past into modern tales. A soothing, bucolic way of living appeals as do the colors and patterns of pristine wildwoods. We venture out on road trips to encounter rocky hills and wild lakes while also innovating, activating, and unleashing our imaginations in sculpted metallics and repunk’d brights that break boundaries, embrace technology and explore a digital universe brimming with possibilities. Freshness can come from Terra Cotta, whose ruddy hues fascinated our most ancient ancestors. It can also arise from the sci-fi metallic tones emblematic of intergalactic travel or from the rich, multicultural influences at play in the worlds of fashion and art. A mythic take on nature might coexist in a mellow rainbow of hues right alongside the intense glamour of botanicals bred to bloom brightly. Traditional architecture might guide us to organic materials and natural hues, even as vivid colors and synthetics shape new interior and exterior experiences.

VIEWPOINT COLOUR Issue 09 - Spirit of Nature (Pre-Order Now)
VIEWPOINT-09
Regular price $155.00 Save $-155.00Excl. GST
Overview
VIEWPOINT COLOUR, edited by Franklin Till, is an aesthetically provocative, culturally relevant trend book that takes a lifestyle approach to color, providing a global color perspective across all product and design industries. Each issue highlights one overarching theme supported by visual imagery, material direction, key direction by color family and 4 trend palettes in Pantone Colors. The latest color news, color psychology research, designer and artist spotlights and future design trends are also featured.
Spirit of Nature focuses on our reconnection to nature, urging us to consider the influence of nature on design as the effects of our betrayal of the natural environment has been thrown into sharp relief by the global pandemic. Highlighting three key color directions we explore color with Material Legacy, color from Deep Nature and color influenced by Elemental forces. While our focus is on enduring, long-lasting classic shades – blacks, beiges and grays, directional color such as zesty shades of striking green, yellow and orange still have relevance. Above all considered color application is key. Far removed from fast-changing seasonal colors intended for quick wins and short-lived relevance, the palettes emerging from Spirit of Nature are slowly evolving from our current and necessary paradigm – one that places us within the natural world, rather than above it.

Responding with determination to the current challenges of the past two years, designers, creatives, thinkers, and activists featured in this issue, illustrate how color, creativity and ingenuity go hand in hand to bring joyfulness. Recognizing that what constitutes a joyful life is as individual as every human being, we embrace a range of colors from muted pastels and shades redolent of the earth to a euphoric showcase of zingy hues imbued with youthful energy to super bright tones reminiscent of grunge. We hope this issue brings not only inspiration, but a sense of joy, and an openness to be bold and playful.
