finding your The 2013 trend projections from our collaborator, Trend Union, are called Bliss. The driving force behind these trends is based on humankind’s 21st century quest for inner peace–a counter movement to a world that has us always working, always plugged in and always on. Looking around, you can see how these trends have already started to manifest themselves in the worlds of literature, fashion, architecture and commercial design: the book, “Quiet” has been on the NY Times Bestseller list for months and months. Hospitals and retail spaces are tapping more and more into spa and healing...

nding your The baking of bread is the alchemy of the everyday. The ability to nourish ones body and soul. The joyful aroma of freshly made bread evokes the feeling of the promise of better days ahead. And the idea of plentiful bounty. The color of the breads like whole wheat and rye provide a sense of relief and a feeling of belonging. Of coming home. We’ve developed this grouping of products to represent these ideas. We strayed from the use of chocolate to delve into the lighter and medium values of this color’s family. The result is an unexpected upscale, but homey grouping of colors. LEFT...

finding your We are seeing a shift from our usual youth-focused culture. A new domain of design where congregation of different ages is celebrated. As a result, we will be experiencing tremendous growth and unbridled creativity in years to come. Young and old coming together to create. Our palette here reflects a reinvention of the color blue – typically thought of as a conventional and safe corporate color–we remove those paradigms to imagine new blues for the new millennium. Bright blues, purple blues, inky navy blues, blues both warm and cool. Anything but corporate and traditional, this palette...

finding your The Garden is a privileged space that connects our inner world with the public world. Populations are gravitating to the urban, while maintaining a strong desire for rural elements to connect with nature. Rooftop gardens and regional farmers markets are examples of the Nursing of Plants. Our palette incorporates new greens–ranging from sage to lime – with fresh accents of poppy and hydrangea. In addition, some of our products are made with SmartStrand Contract, the first bio-based fiber for commercial use. By including rapidly renewable resources in our products we are lessening...

nding your This is a meditation on the idea of mending, the ritual of stitching and the poetry of embroidery. We will see the comeback of vintage hues and the layering of colors and patterns. Clothes will have homemade, hand-stitched embellishments. Interiors will have special touches that are not mass-produced. Our palette focuses on the layering of colors, taking solid elds and infusing them with tufted bits of colors or multicolors. The optimism of the color orange reects the positivity and bliss we are constantly striving for. PRODUCTS SHOWN: JACKET 403 | PAVED FREEDOM 7889 | BREAK THROUGH...

finding your The need for repetition becomes part of the human condition. People trying to design their lives. Create structure amidst chaos, a fresh sense of nostalgia. A variety of motifs from sailor stripes, to the strength of gingham and the familiar welcome of mattress ticking. All are welcome. Many of our products offer numerous types of stripes from which to choose. Including the extremely graphic rolling stripe in Analogue and Shirt to the non-stripe stripe we manufacture through the use of our tonal space dyes.

finding your With the desire to become one with the Universe, there exists a desire to explore the past and our ancestors. Look to the popularity of Ancestry.com and the History Channel as examples of this trend. Through this exploration we will see a new form of Spiritual Ecology coming into our vernacular. We have interpreted this trend by reinventing the grey color family with a soulfulness and gravitas that communicates a spiritual, healing feeling. Marrying cool grays and warm grays together helps to create balance and imparts the feeling of stability and being on solid ground. The addition...

nding your A colorcard of non-colors, non-expression, nonattention. This idea is based on the emergence of a culture that rejects consumption. Consumption is viewed as wasted energy. For spaces, this means that the interior architecture takes the forefront of the conversation and the nishes provide the backdrop. Our Power Surge Collection featured in this palette with the style called Wavelength was developed with this idea in mind. We built a sophisticated palette of subtle colors, with intricate patterns that mimic our woven broadlooms but use tufted technology. PRODUCTS SHOWN: EXPERIMENT 7838...

finding your This is the idea of a global spirituality and an acknowledgement that we have a deep desire to understand other cultures. The modern businessperson is a new breed of nomad working globally going from country to country with regularity. The result is indigenous design that is increasingly influenced by nonnative, cultural styles and fashions. We appreciate that many of our customers regularly create with a global customer in mind. Often being required to blend a branded image into a space with the respect of a culture and its surroundings. PRODUCTS SHOWN: SYMPHONIC PULSE 371 | LYRICAL...
