The Boston Design Guide identified 6 major fall 2013 trends in this collection:

  1. Runway Stripes – Bob Williams noted they were inspired by the stripes they saw on fashion runways from the likes of renowned Paris fashion house Lanvin.
  2. Vintage Patterns – Late-‘60s mod to early-‘70s Art Deco wallpaper, fabrics and tiles were the influence for these home furnishings.
  3. Tibetan Shag – The furry fashion trend from the 70’s is back in modern home furnishings.
  4. Moody Blues with Not-So-Heavy Metal – Popular shades of blue like navy, cobalt, teal, and soft sky blues work great with various metals.
  5. Upholstered All Over – Dress it up or dress it down – new upholstered furnishings add color, pattern and texture to a room.
  6. Space Age Redux – Graphic design, interior design, architecture, film, and even the historic moonwalk of the ‘70s inspired these space-age looking furnishings.

    Love the idea of vintage tile inspired fabric. I got a great idea from your prior Facebook photo post. Thanks for helping me slip cover the ottoman to bring it up to date in its new home at the Cape.
