16 2019 | TRENDS der pink, violet, sage, French blue and teal. Following are influences at work within the Revitalizing the Past trend. • Art Deco – This era was a pastiche of many different styles, sometimes contradictory, united by the desire to be modern. This style was asso- ciated with luxury and incorporat- ed mixed metals such as bronze, brushed steel and nickel, polished or inlaid hardwood with unusual grain- ing or patterning, dynamic marbles, circular and geometric shapes such as triangles, hex and chevrons. Art Deco colors are daring and deeply saturated – lavish cream, taupe, blackest black, stark white, orange, yellow, green, blue and pink. • Mid-Century Modern – From the ornateArtDecoinfluence,weswing to the simplicity of Mid-Century Modern, with a focus on clean lines and function. Wood is the main material in both flooring and furniture, with organic design that focuses on seamless indoor/out- door interplay. This trend breathes through a neutral palette of brown, gray and white with accents of color, such as Dijon mustard yellow, burnt orange, teal, navy blue, olive green and deep red. The renewed Mid-Century modern also features pastel colors including Millennial pink, peach, mint green, orange sorbet and pale yellow. • Memphis – Memphis was a reac- tion against the status quo of mini- malism in the '70s. The Memphis Group wanted to turn the design world upside down with bold, funky outrageous design. Memphis means bright multi-colored furni- ture in asymmetrical shapes, with bold Pop Art colors and pastels. Terrazzo and laminate were used in flooring and furniture.
