NEW TREND: History
The HISTORY trend invites you to step into the past to witness a battle between austere purity and seductive opulence.
From late Medieval 15th Century, through the Elizabethan era, to the ornate Baroque of the 17th Century – be inspired by
the paintings, costumes, and courts of these periods. Find a meaningful place for reinterpretations of historical works and
old world values – a design dialogue with the past which offers stillness, restraint, and order in an increasingly complex,
technology-dominated, fast-paced modern reality. In the half-light a heavy color palette of oil paint and muted chalk pastel
shades come into focus. Amidst the sepia shadows it is possible to distinguish heady claret, cloaked blue, rich emerald, and
gilded treasures. Artisanal skills and age old techniques are revered: starched, ruffled, and pleated structures create rigorous
order; references to armor result in chainmail constructions; cut glass, tapestry, and Venetian marbling enjoy a renaissance;
dark woods appear purposely aged, scraped, and burnished; bare canvas textures, deep brushstroke ridges, and crackled
surfaces reference paintings of the Dutch Golden Age; eclectic patchworks of interlocked Medieval tile patterns; Baroque
damasks disrupted by contemporary motif and aggressive mark making; embossed, laser-cut, and quilted leathers; pitted,
flaking, powdery plaster surfaces. Traverse the centuries and forge a new relationship with the past!

STAINMASTER® PetProtect Carpet
INVISTA is launching a STAINMASTER® PetProtect™ carpet
and cushion system. The system consists of a new, durable,
easy-to-clean STAINMASTER® carpet that resists difficult pet
stains and easily releases pet hair when vacuumed, plus a
STAINMASTER® carpet cushion, with a unique moisture
barrier. STAINMASTER® PetProtect™ carpet is made with
SuperiaSD™ solution dyed nylon fiber with locked-in color,
making it resistant to fading, even when exposed to intense
sunlight and powerful peroxide cleaning agents. The
proprietary moisture barrier found on STAINMASTER® carpet
cushion, helps keep moisture and spills from soaking into the cushion and subfloor, allowing for
more thorough cleaning and odor reduction. Another benefit of the carpet is that laboratory
testing revealed more pet hair was removed when vacuuming STAINMASTER® PetProtect™
carpet than most other carpets. The company says this means more hair in your vacuum and less
hair on your pants, something almost every pet owner will appreciate.

Origine (available in five shades)
The Origine range is crafted from Oak, a tree that has
predominated in France’s forests for many centuries. Perhaps
the most elegant of all flooring materials, Origine is inspired
by old buildings full of character, with a patina of age that
confers a unique sense of authenticity. It is available in five
shades, all with a timeless natural beauty. Each plank of
Origine flooring is selected with scrupulous care. We
specifically look for timber with character: knots, cracks and
other natural imperfections that form as the tree grows, giving
the wood a soul and a personality. We use wide strips, adding
aged-effect chamfers deep-brushed to catch the light, and manually fill the knotholes as we see
necessary. The result is a uniquely stylish and decidedly contemporary interior.
NEW TREND: life
The LIFE trend is about capturing moments in time of nature’s evolution. It is a tinted world where crystallized nature
meets digital art; a cryogenic aesthetic and icy transparencies create a new, frozen interior landscape. The mood is
clean and cool with products displaying delicate frosted effects. Ice veins, glacier finishes, and liquid mercury work alongside
soft fur-like textures and textural reptile skins, as laboratory tints of formaldehyde and crystallized greens are paired with
natural, organic colors of ice white, nude and flesh tones, and grey. Neons evolve this season and we see colored glass and
plastics in acid pastels and cold brights. Designers continue to experiment with luminosity, colored glow effects, and halos of
light and a super hazy aesthetic comes to the fore via tinted, cloudy glass and corrugated plastics, as well as beautiful,
opaque pastel resins. Hard surfaces are cold and reflective with iridescent; frosted changeant; pearlescent; and tinted,
frosted metallic effects. Layers of transparent color create new digital patterns whilst mineral kaleidoscopic digital prints in
crystal colors, microscopic patterns saturated with colored dye, and adrenaline crystals create a futuristic lab look. Spiky
frost and ice vein patterns are seen captured within glass and plastics. Soft surfaces are smooth or finely crushed with
silvered threads creating a clean, scientific shimmer and nude metallics delivering a luxurious sheen. This is Life Suspended!

NEW TREND: RE.CONNECT
This trend is a cultural and spiritual pilgrimage in search of post-crisis answers to acceptable ways of living, sharing,
and behaving in a multi-cultural, multi-connected world. A search for the modern truth via a physical and emotional
journey of discovery expressed via color, texture, and pattern. We see exploding clouds of colored chalk and many
surfaces with a powdered/chalky textured finish. Hand crafted, imperfect finishes are key with edges tufted and frayed, and
distressed finishes and worn away areas of paint adding character and a textural layer to dried out, reclaimed wood.
Craftsmanship holds the key as Designers work with a wonderful fusion of vibrant handmade beadwork and embroidery in
traditional patterns; Micro beadwork; Tassels and knotted multicolored threads; Double sided fabrics with mismatched
pattern; Woven textiles and patchwork; Woven raffia, wicker, and straw-like materials; and Macramé detail. Alongside these
crafted effects we also see smooth, synthetic finishes via rubber and plastic surfaces in bright opaque colors, and colored
brushed metallics. A joyful ‘more is more’ aesthetic inspires a bold mix of patterns full of movement: Colorful distressed
paisleys and florals; Indian batik Ikats; Damask patterns featuring color bleeds and blotch effects; Festive Indian decorations;
Digital collages of travel inspired imagery; Swirls of digital light; Mirror repeats; Patchworks and woven pattern; Folklore
inspired; African dot patterns; Stylised elephant motif; and South American patterns. A new creative cultural conversation!

NEW TREND: ritual
The RITUAL trend leads you deep into a mystical forest where the desire to reconnect with nature can be satisfied and a
contemporary context for spiritualism awaits discovery. Hints of Paganism, Shamanism, and Medieval magic set a
mysterious tone, and a protective mood prevails as the need for a sense of security, protection, and reassuring familiarity
grows. You are invited to seek sanctuary in Biophilia - re-evaluate your relationship with, and appreciation of, the natural
world – flora, fauna, and forces. From the radiance of forest clearings and the wilderness of woodlands, to the richness of worked
fields and plains comes a color palette of earth tones and bruised accents including wheat and peat, foliage greens, gold ore, and
winter berries. Natural materials abound and manmade materials mimic nature’s forms, patterns, and textures: an experimental
use of fur, shearlings, and hair; Zoomorphism – representations of animal forms; a new appreciation of blonde woods including
ash, elm, birch, beech, and maple; flaking and blackened gold, bronze, and copper; iridescent river fish skin effects; leaf-embossed
leather and laser-cut suede; rough bark textures juxtaposed with super-smooth sanded surfaces; mossy and rocky surfaces;
twisted, plaited, and knotted structures; honeycomb constructions; end grain and cork; pentagram patterns, kaleidoscopic imagery,
and intricate Celtic knots. Less is better – Simplicity is best!
