In her fourth collection with Groundworks at Lee Jofa, Kelly Wearstler addresses the latest interior design trends by presenting dynamic and illusionistic elements in a new collection of fabrics, leathers, wallcoverings, and trimmings.Geometric patterns stand out and seamlessly blend in this collection with the use of bold and subdued color. COVET piques interest with its angular nature and seemingly time-worn texture. The hard angles of a faceted gemstone are softened by the washed look of this linen-cotton blend digital print.
POST VELVET is another example of this range, featuring an overscale, graphic wood print that highlights an organic yet graphic element within the bold and neutral color stories.
Exceptional quality is at the forefront of so many patterns in this collection. PASTICHE features a maze-like embroidery that offers a soft structure to its textural ground.
CHANNELS, one of Kelly’s most adored patterns, is back with more versatile colorways, including darker shades, pushing the abstract and graphic boundaries of this bold pattern. It’s also offered as a stunning wallcovering.
New Lee Jofa Wallcoverings from KravetYet, RAPTURE PAPER is also available on silk and paper, offering a dynamic option for a more elevated and luxurious statement.
We ’re not done yet though: RARITY PAPER coordinates with its fabric counterpart, offered in a wide range of color from soft warm neutrals to blush, jade and bold blues.
Finally, one of this collection’s most exciting introductions is the new fashionable tassel fringe trimming. FELIX FRINGE is inspired by chunky constructions on textural grounds and successfully makes this vintage aesthetic feel contemporary.
This new collection from Kelly Wearstler offers an unexpected visual dialogue, enhanced by a graphic structure in patterns and nature using two and three-dimensional art, in an ever-evolving but always current color palette. Geometric and dynamic patterns stand out and seamlessly blend in this collection with the use of bold and subdued color.Looking for more new interior design trends, marketing tips, and ideas?

Interior Design Trends – Southwestern Design is Not Dead
From rugs to wall coverings and from draperies to fabrics, the demise of southwestern design has been greatly exaggerated. As proof, we offer the collaboration of Kravet, the industry leader in to-the-trade fabric and furnishings, with Museum of New Mexico.For this stunning fabric collection, the Museum tells the story of its unique place as a crossroads of international trade and culture through fabrics inspired by the Museum's renowned textile, basketry, and ceramic collections.The inspiration for these modern interpretations of traditional southwestern designs was drawn primarily from small-scale patterns and embroideries in the 25,000-piece textile and dress collection at the Museum of International Folk Art. Iconic Native American textile and ceramic pieces from the Museum of Indian Arts & Culture also influenced many of the collection's designs. These museums comprise two of the Museum of New Mexico's four cultural institutions.Color and texture inspirations came from diverse mediums such as pottery, basketry, textiles and cut paper patterns. The result is rich textures and pops of vivid colors that mimic the crisp blue sky, the red earth, and an array of the complementary hues, both hot and cool, so often identified with the beautiful Santa Fe landscape.Kravet Fabrics & TextilesTextile designer and Museum of International Folk Art donor Alexander Girard quoted an Italian proverb when asked why he collected the folk art of the world's artisans: "Tutto il mondo e paes" or, "The whole world is hometown.""In partnering with us and by choosing such a broad spectrum of Museum textiles for inspiration, Kravet too is saying, 'The whole world is hometown' and that there are no foreigners," said Pamela Kelly, Vice President of Licensing and Brand Management for the Museum.Santa Fe has been an international hub of culture and commerce for centuries, as well as a creative haven for artists, writers, collectors, and others drawn to the region's bohemian lifestyle, spacious landscapes and rich cultural traditions. This eclectic ensemble of textiles embodies this creative approach to living – collected, worldly, and modern. (Kravet)Looking for more new design trends, marketing tips, and ideas?
