Trends presented for 2010- 2011

Today I was one of many fortunate designers who managed to get a seat in Dave Nemeth's trend report presentation.
The presentation touched on various contributers to the trends of 2010 and 2011 and helped explain why designers are doing what they are and why.

As we speak, the Industrial age is making its entrance into the European nations, highlighting the construction and exposing, rather than concealing.

This trend is re- inforced by all the raw steel work, recycled materials, and re- claimed timber that are being used to create a more "lived in" approach with emphasis on the istory of the items and the character those items brought rather than a slick "clinical" approach.

It is going to be a very exciting turn of events in the near future!
