Chevron Alert!

Do you like bold colors, but not the exaggeration and visual pollution of it everywhere? A pattern is the perfect way to introduce color and still be innovative, cool and on trend And at the moment Chevron stripes- a mix of horizontal, diagonal and vertical lines are hot!

 
The pattern is awesome for drawing attention- as much or as little as you want, with or without excess, but always with originality. 
 
"With the revival of the Chevron and Flame stitch… These linear prints have come back to life with a modern feel and a far improved colour palette. They are super currant and add to a space." Tatjana Emer

Since it became popular on the runway of Italian fashion house Missoni; the Chevron, with it's appealing zig-zag, is the go-to print top designer are showcasing for current interiors. And is it a wonder we can not get the Chevron out of our heads? As pictured here, in spring 2014, It will appear on fabrics, walls, carpets and accessories. I say make way solids it's time to zig zag! Erika Soares
