Trend Alert: American Nostalgia

Posted by Andie on September 11, 2012

The New York International Gift Fair (NYIGF) took place a few weeks ago, where the top five up and coming home design trends were identified by experts in the market. Fresh color palettes and new products were showcased to exemplify these trends, and to get buyers excited about the future!

One of the five new design trends that is currently gaining importance in the industry is called American Nostalgia. The editor at large defines this style as, "Heavy on nostalgia, merging classic motifs like denim, patchwork, numbers and flags with distressed finishes, salvaged materials and schoolroom style. The theme's color palettes includes shades of blues, green and gray."

Here are a few examples I found that demonstrate American Nostalgia- you can expect to see this style around this fall!
