Get inspired by nature
Looking forward to winter? This Christmas, we’re going back to nature. Nature offers peace and quiet, and space for those who need a Christmas without the smartphone, social media, and deadlines. It also offers luxuriance and abundance for those who want to enjoy the good things in life. We’re looking to nature for ways of relaxing and recharging our batteries. Back home again, we opt for a warm and cosy get-together with family and friends. The Christmas trend ‘Inspired by Nature’ draws on natural shapes, colours, and materials. Get inspired by nature!
Choose for yourself: subdued or exuberant
The Christmas trend of the year is inspired entirely by nature. It’s versatile, can be used in various ways, and can be translated into a collection, shop window, or shop presentation in no time at all. With the right combination of natural tones, prints, or images from the forest and items made of reed, wood, coloured glass, and porcelain, the Inspired by Nature trend allows you to create your own winter collection. Subtle and subdued with a basic and natural colour palette, chunky textiles, and modest ornaments; or terrifically over the top and exuberant with intense, extravagant colours, rich, snuggly fabrics, and warm materials. Combined with Christmas decorations and fairy lights, you can create your own festive interpretation of this cosy winter trend in no time.
