This time we highlight two hot interior design trends. One of which is the personal and the other is the possibly human. What they both have in common is a personal print with human forms. BY:SOFIA HALLSTRÖM
Superpop, also from Miniforms, has not only been praised for being stylish and winning, but also because it is so versatile and can be used both as a stool and as a table.
PERSONAL INTERIOR
Why turn your home into an interior design magazine? After too many years of impersonal nonsense like crisp white walls and ”greige” minimalism in the interior design world, there is finally room for individuality. Actually a matter of course, but for some reason we seem to have forgotten for many years to make our home a part of our personality and a place to tell our stories. Now is the time to find out what our own style is. And it is probably both more fun and much more environmentally friendly to have a home decorated in a personal style than one that slavishly follows the latest color trend. The design market is keeping up. Rarely has there been such great interest in unique design objects. Ideally, they function as works of art in themselves, regardless of whether it is a colorful chair, a sculptural lamp or a flea market-found, pop-colored sofa.
At the same time, interest in art has grown, as have antiques and both maximalist wallpapers and exciting feature walls to create character. And why not let your hobby be expressed in the interior design? Whether it's endless piles of books, an impressive vinyl collection or a passion for ceramics.
POSSIBLE AND HUMAN
Inviting and almost human, the seating furniture has taken on an increasingly puffy character. Like down jackets to sink into or bouncy toys that just happen to be extra crunchy as seating. Among the favorites are the seating furniture that has a soul of its own. Supported by shapes reminiscent of arms, buttocks and elephant feet, they become like inviting pets, but without maintenance requirements. With oversized shapes and soft curves, they give an anthropomorphic feeling, as if they were living creatures, ready to set off on their own. Humor and personality in all their glory, it is difficult to resist the temptation to sink down for a relaxed, wifi-free hour when the armchair is as embracing as, for example, Philippe Malouin's "Puffer", inspired by
puffy winter jackets.
