There is no new revelation in saying that today as consumers we desire more from our purchases. Brands are constantly competing with each other to offer products that instantly become treasured possessions.
Translating across all elements of design, this notion can be seen emerging mainly within the interior and home sector. Home trends suggest that it is a time for products to be made with love and evoke the romance and design from bygone eras.
One such furniture designer, Katie Thompson, has jumped onto this trend feet first with her ‘Recreate’ range, made from extraordinary antiques.
Graduating with a distinction in interior design, Thompson has over seven years experience in furniture design. This beautifully imagined collection shows Thompson at her best with an unconventional marriage of antiques and functionality.
As we enter 2011 we begin to value crafted pieces with a new appreciation for meaningful design. Katie Thompson is but one designer that fits this trend perfectly.
Trend predictions suggest that 2011 will be the year for the emergence of classic adaptation.
Judging by Thompson’s elegant, functional and well-designed furniture, I for one am looking forward to seeing more and more.
