MAXIMALISM - Prints and patterns become more daring, referencing a maximalist aesthetic with a ‘more is more’ approach.
FLORA AND FAUNA - Ever present; dense, lush tropical designs continue to flourish, wild blooms are a key floral story and monkey motifs remain prevalent, depicted in jungle landscapes whether on bold contrasting backgrounds or camouflaged within simple illustrative repeats.
JAPANESE - A new wave of Asian influence will come in anticipation for the up and coming Tokyo Olympics. Prepare for a fresh take on Japan’s rich and sophisticated decorative history.
