Imagination - Creativity

KEY CONCEPTS


Interior spaces are becoming more tranquil and more harmonious, but this does not exclude the need for a bit of excitement. Quiet interiors include interesting objects such as museum pieces. We look for products that stimulate our imagination as if they had a story to tell. Not a total atmosphere but a focus on a single object. A good way of keeping our imagination in shape! Here, the leading role is reserved for the Cymbidium, a flower with a legend all its own.

INTERIORS IN GENERAL
Colours: added to the basic white and soft natural tones are pink, purple and a natural green. White plays the leading role.  

Materials:
both decorative and simple materials are refined and display a typical elegance. Glass fine porcelain, beads, voile, tulle, satin.  

Sha
pes: romantic and symbolic shapes that we recall from fairytales. Quirky combined shapes and animal shapes such as rabbits and birds are frequently used.  

Patterns:
the patterns used are elegant and romantic and can be seen as separate elements on products where you least expect such an element

ARRANGEMENTS
Colours: the natural tints typical of Cymbidium are the basis for the use of colour in these arrangements: white, pink, yellow and green. Not too many different colours are used in the same arrangement.  

Shapes: exciting arrangements with an enchanting character. The binding techniques are quite diverse but always deliberately applied.  

Vases: the vases play an important role in this theme and contribute to the enchanting character of the arrangement. Objects not originally intended as a vase are used for this purpose.

COLOUR CHART
White is the most important colour in this theme. Accompanying white are light, toned-down colours chosen from almost every group in the colour chart but with more emphasis on pink/purples.
