Trends Project: Alpine

The first project for BA Textiles Design (Printed Textiles) is Alpine, for this module we'll be exploring the trend of Alpine for Autumn/Winter 13/14. This trend is all about embracing nature and the great outdoors, warm and cool moods are created with a Woodland palette, playful and down to earth imagery.
Key points I will be exploring for this project are:
Rustic elements inspire finishes on hard surfaces- I enjoy manipulating the surfaces of materials and changing their properties.
Natural aesthetic, bringing the outdoors indoors- I like being around nature, peaceful walks, sitting in a park, cycling through woodland areas.

For this project I really want to connect with the colour palette, find and take photographs that reflect the Alpine colours. Those are images I found and picked out the colours that reflect the Alpine trend.
