Trends Spring | Summer 2020

Take inspiration for your work from the PRECIOSA ORNELA color trends

Would you like to know what color shades will dominate the Spring/Summer 2020 season? Here is something to inspire you.

This time, we have entered the 20th century which was very rich in design the whole world over. Yes, the design of the last century is the main link between our four trend topics.

These include Tiffany's stained glass technique involving the connection of small hand-worked pieces of glass with copper strips and tin which you can find, for example, in windows or building interiors and the Wednesday light fitting by the designer Tord Boontje, which successfully combines nature, craft and technology in a single piece. We have also followed in the footsteps of the extravagant design of the red Vermelha armchair by the Campana brothers which consists of a large number of loops on an aluminium frame or the well-known "Beetle" vehicle, one of the Volkswagen brand's longest produced vehicles with the largest number of vehicles manufatured without any changes.

A white canvas stretched on a frame. A challenge for your unlimited fantasy, for your creative soul. Paint it, apply color to it, transform it using the pallet of basic colors, syrupy red, jubilant yellow. Mix up many shades of blue; cool light blue, crunchy navy and the deepest dark blue and on to black. All that is missing are the rare tones of eccentric emerald green in contrast with the sweetly sticky lilac. Increase the effect with a little holographic sparkle.

The internationally renowned glass company of Louis Comfort Tiffany experimented with many ways of producing colored glass and achieved almost 5000 shades. It used them in its stained glass patterns from the 1890s to the 1930s. The company created lamps, shades and decorative panels from designs using small pieces of cut glass placed in metal frames.

Do you accept the possibility of the existence of supernatural phenomena? Mysterious feelings provoke your imagination in silent, dark green, foggy forest growth, the bluish shadows of the crowns of the trees, the undulation of dried out blades of grass. There is a breeze for a moment and the sun flutters with airy chiffon. They confuse you, the subtle movements of the denizens of the thickets intoxicate, the song of the birds in bright pastel colors, the rustle of the rainbow wings of water insects, the sunny buzz during pollination, the rustle of mouldered leaves when stepped on.

The combination of the use of recycled materials and modern technologies gives rise to original design ideas. The ever-improving photographic etching technique has been used to create the pattern of a simple stylized leaf in several sizes which are connected to the main branch by the stem. They are combined with the motif of a flower in galvanised brass, whose plates expand outwards and sometimes shine brightly and at other times allow the shiny play of lights.

Colorful

What is color? A perception created on the eye's retina. But the journey through life may also be colorful and shades can have personalities, human needs and ideas. Delicate pink deserves sympathy and admiration, while distinctive purple refers to humility and restraint. If you desire love and passion, choose distinctive brick and light orange. Avoid yellow shades, as they express jealousy. If you want to reconnect with somebody, choose a gift in the green color scale.

The first Vermelha armchair by the Campana brothers was displayed at a gallery show in Sao Paulo in Brazil in 1993. In many cases, visitors considered it to be an individual work of art. The producers initially did not know how to make the armchair. The frame consists of metal legs, a flat seat and several vertical rods. The wall is woven between them like a basket. It is then thread with many loops which also cover the seat. The total work required amounts to 50 hours.

The heated air quivers and shakes above the savannah with light yellow warm and cold gleaming glints. Golden sand and the caramel crunchy undulating hot landscape stretch to the horizon with transitions to grey and ochre clay. White clouds dash about the sky during the course of the day. As the noon air becomes heavy, the clouds turn blue. The wind transfers grains and dust and the first large drops begin to fall from the dark blue sky.

The bodywork behind the rear seat creates an aerodynamic curve which is not common on scooters, but more so on automobiles. In the middle of the wide strip of shining metal, there is an easily visible, round rear light affixed to a stable metal bracket.
