What is old is NEW
I guess one of the benefits of being in a industry like interior design for a while is that you get to see trends come and go. 'Time equals change'
Back in November I posted about the catalog from RESTORATION HARDWARE mentioning the numerous pictures of Lime Plaster walls and Fireplaces incorporating the finishes into the settings. It was nice to see a major interior retailer providing such exposure to relatively under noted finish - plaster.
In the past week I was down in Seattle and had a moment to duck into a RH store and was really surprised at the complete make over the entire store. Gary Friedman is the CEO of RH, has taken the tough times in recent years to go true to his direction and beliefs for what RH is about, in his words "Today's Restoration Hardware is a personal expression of what we believe in, design we are passionate about, produced by artisans who in their own right are creating a cultural revolution." - I like that.
And what I like more is the warmth and textures of the furnishings in the current store. Furnishings evoking yesteryear craftsmanship(built to last) with old world grandeur, yet with lines that fit today's interiors.
If interior trends run a cycle, like fashion, then I can guess what is coming next.... can you?
