The oddly luxurious trend from Antron® Carpet fibre
Presented in the 2013/14 Colour Trend Forecast, the Eccentric Icons palette reveals a hybrid colour trend encapsulating past, present and future as identified by the collaboration between INVISTA Antron® carpet fibre and Global Colour Research.
The trend carves a luxurious aesthetic with fresh appeal that feels comfortably familiar, having cherry picked out the finest merits of design across the ages. With a nod to all things vintage, the trend calls on the quality and intricate detail characteristic of traditional workmanship and vintage crafts, combined with the razor sharp, clean shapes demanded by today’s minimalist aesthetics.
Eccentric Icons enhances vibrancy by turning up the saturation of retro hues, echoing the 20’s and 30’s with saffron yellow, royal navy and burnt orange which are partnered with modern neutrals, such as dusky rose, soft grey and pale sand. The resulting colour combinations resonate sophisticated, timeless style.
Fusing classic with contemporary, this elegant trend will see both hard material staples and fabrics reinvented with modern shapes and uses, as well as fresh interpretations of classic designs as modern technology meets authentic craftsmanship.
“The colourways seen from the Eccentric Icons trend combine for a bright yet mature look that is discreetly uplifting and effortlessly classy,” comments Neil Maguire, Regional Marketing Manager, Invista. “We would expect this crisp trend to become especially relevant across the luxury market, as it injects interiors with a novel scheme which stays refined and very smart.”
