October’s Colour of the Month is Forest Green

Roberts Revival Radio Forest Green

Taking its lead from Global Color Research’s Mix trend Gran, which celebrates everything nostalgic and comforting, this month sees Forest Green move into the design spotlight. A colour that lends itself particularly well to leather goods and sophisticated interiors, the Autumn Winter 2010/11 trend for this hue will see it move into consumer goods and furniture.

Let us know if you have spotted any great Forest Green creations over the recent London Design Festival or Vienna Design Week.

Canary Yellow is September’s Colour of the Month

Canary Yellow - Show

Mix Trends story for Autumn Winter 2010/11, Show, is featured this month. Bright primaries are key, reflecting idealised views of the traditional country fair and vibrant jockey silks. Canary Yellow is our Colour of the Month; great for use in uplifting spaces where people need to be alert.

Matt Luxury set for Autumn Winter 2010/11

In Mix issue 20, we profiled matt black as a micro-trend to watch, along with matt finishes becoming a statement of luxury. We’ve just received news that Super are releasing their flattop sunglasses in a handmade, matt black leather colourway for Autumn Winter 2010/11.

While black is still the sophisticated choice, the other two colours are also stunning; chocolate brown and warm orange. Look out for home accessories taking on the matt black trend this winter too.
