Everyone's ready to escape. But this trend started
three to four years ago with island retreat/boho
décor. Escape is more important than ever as
people feel freer to travel and now have vacations
on their minds, even at home. e recent
blending of home and workspace begs for mental
time away by using tropical or nautical themes
loaded with natural materials. Planters and
mixed organic materials of rattan, bamboo and
hemp lend an earthy vibe. Bold blues and whites
add coastal charm. Dried fl orals, along with the
mixed texture and fi nish of vessels like glass and
sisal twine or glazed and unglazed
ceramics, add everlasting natural
appeal. Vacation-themed spaces
have a collected, curated
feel, with an emotional
connection to a destination
place. Expect to see: backyard
"lightscapes," pressed
botanicals, and beach-
inspired or geometric
patterns with irregular or
imprecise lines.
