Creation Bauman - Fall Newness

We're afraid of upcoming Typhoon this weekend in Tokyo...!

We went to visit Creation bauman's Fall newness exhibition the other day.

Thir theme of this season is "Chic and Classy", and they have 3 big collections which are
Print, Jacquard & Chair covering.




My favorite was their main collection "Print" which introduces vivid ink jet printed flowers, birds and butterflies as picture shown.


Most of their jacquard drape curtains are reversible,  and they look differently seeing them from front or back.


Chair covering uses classical velvet fabrics, and its multi color stripe and dot designs are recommended for cushions.


This is thier permanent collection, "Eluis" which is inspired by Japanese ORIGAMI.
Its steric shapes are really creative.



We had a delicious chocolate from "Blondel" at the exhibition, too.
It's a  humber cut chocolate of traditional Swiss ingredients  with aromatic flavors.


We are able to introduce Creation bauman's full collection at May's.
Please ask us for any needs of stylish and creative curtains & fabrics!

Seminar


The other day, the fabric manufacturer Tomita textile introduced us new series of fabric released in this autumn.  

This time, they showed us the collection of JANE CHURCHILL, a brand of traditional English style mixed with modern style.
We could see the fabric samples and found thier new texture and colors.
We'd like to introduce some of them.

The splashed pattern has been popular since this spring. It reminds us of a japanese traditional pattern.There are some color variations and they look different depending on colors.
Antique and lustrous fabric suits for chair and sofa cloth.The texture looks different depending on how it scratched.
The pattern of flowers and coral colors are good for cushion as accents of the room.
The pattern of ring stripes look attractive for large windows.
 It’s good to enjoy various fabrics for even a small cushion, chairs, sofas and curtain.

Interior Accessories - Framed pictures

The framed pictures are one of the important elements of the interior decoration.
By arranging the wall which is the large part of the room with some pictures or paintings, it can be a focal point, which people's eyes are fixed on. To match the taste and colors used in the space, the interior decoration could  be more effective.

Talking about the recent exhibiton at the museum, "American Pop Art" has been held until late October  at the National Art Center Tokyo.
 
A large number of well-known works by Andy Warhol, Jasper Johnes and other major figures of Pop Art in 1960s America, which you may have seen once are introduced in it.
 
Those contemporary arts look still new even nowadays and can be one of the main parts of the room if hanged on the wall as interior accessories.
 
If not, there are lots to learn from a color scheme and composition of those works  in order to get some ideas for interior decoration for your own room.

Why not to find your favorite pictures or paintings at a museum and a gallery?
