Title : FOLLOW THE TREND
FOLLOW THE TREND
I'm always curious to hear about the latest Interior Design trends: a return to Baroque, taxidermy in the home; some sound fascinating, others I can't imagine. Truthfully, I tend to resist trends, knowing that by the time I got around to purchasing just the right cerused oak bureau, knotty oak will be all the rage. So it was with a keen interest that I attended the Wall Street Journal Magazine Panel Discussion at the D & D Building yesterday on "Whats Next In Decorating?" The distinguished panel included two of my favorite tastemakers, David Netto and Miles Redd along with Sarah Ruffin Costello and Deborah Needleman of the WSJ Magazine. The panel discussion was lively and touched upon trends, design inspiration and answers to the all important question, "What's Next?"

What inspires them right now?
Miles Redd, a true master of color, not surprisingly loves the pairing of daring colors like daffodil yellow and hot pink in a room. Redd mentioned the late Henri Samuel's Paris apartment with its restrained French elegance as one of his inspirations. Also, the panel agreed that "design statements" like a glossy black wall with crisp white trim or a larger than life statue expresses character and personality in a room. Netto referred to the iconic Dorothy Draper and her fearless use of scale and color to produce innovative rooms that are still relevant today. All agreed, a few good things will carry a room and restraint, rather than excess, should be the rule.

Where are we going?
An appreciation for the handmade: rugs, textiles and furniture will show individual style and admiration for craftsmanship. Love it or leave it, beige will be replaced with exuberance and color and we will see a departure from the hard lines and stark interiors of the 70's. Look to the 80's for inspiration. Netto described this design trend as "Messy Modernism", an edited and crisp revision of the 80's interiors of Mario Buatta and Mark Hampton. Think casual chintz in a modern more simplified manner. "Rustic Luxe", the beachy chic of the Grey Gardens variety will also be a popular trend.
