Cinematic
Cinema is a frame in which the world is distilled, sharpened into a concentrated reality.
The film genres of a century of cinema evoke many moods, all of them different, all of them poetic and sensual.
Sun-kissed light and tone trigger nostalgic memories that inspire colour and material choices, while grain and quality of film stock evoke textured surfaces and vintage treatments.
The seductive quality of movies means designers have started making films instead of catwalk shows, while publishers produce films instead of magazines. This is the mood board and colour palet for cinematic from wgsn.
I thoughtthe next few images would be really indperstional because we are trying to keeping with the hole nateral fell, i thought that looking at thesse would give some ideas for how the modle could incoperate different shapes and materials.
Primitive
In spring/summer 2010, we identified Nest , a trend for modern rusticity that was manifested in dry, entangled fibrous effects and the exploration of natural composites. These aesthetic principles have continued to proliferate and are here to stay, as spotlighted by the WGSN team in Primitive for spring/summer 2012. This trend has permeated all areas, including art, product design, fashion and accessories.
- Traditional craftsmanship and raw organic materials are revisited by designers and married with innovative manufacturing techniques and man-made composites as a new aesthetic language is born
- Product designer Adi Zaffran combines tree branches, trunks and twigs with plastic during the moulding process
- Natural, raw-state materials with ingrained textures are key, as original materials are harvested and composites created from compressed plants and fibrous roughage
- As seen in Metro Cabinate by Will Shannon, which reuses natural paper pulp to to form the body of the product
- At Designers Week Tokyo this year, Shir Atar exhibited a series of stools inspired by bales of hay that utilised organic materials and techniques such as fringing
- And at Dutch Design Week and Frieze Art Fair this year, natural hair was incorporated into a variety of interior products and environments
I thouht that these were really interesting in the way that hardly any material is used and at the same time so resoursfull.
