Modern:
Modern Design is a collage of convergent perspectives; think of it as Bauhaus meets Scandinavian
and pop art, with a wild card thrown in. The Bauhaus proved that less is more, and form follows function. Its purposeful straight-line perspective is alive today in a wide range of product and interior design. The Scandinavians softened the perspective with curvilinear shapes, and metaphoric propositions. Finally, the pop art generation added a fun graphic language to the mix. Modern tableware design today, continues to examine the potential of line and form that stays ahead of the curve. Shop Modern Flatware Shop Modern Dinnerware
Classic:
Classic Design exhibits balance and form that is timeless and enduring. This aesthetic is about lasting sig
nificance. Envision the simple and harmonious lines established by the craftsman who created the fine lines of Shaker cabinetry. Tactile satisfaction also relates to this aesthetic, with the pleasure one receives from using a purposefully elegant historic design. Familiar lines and details from classic architecture, provide the visual vocabulary and lasting spirit for this portfolio of design.
Decorative Design is intuitive and emotional, romantic and traditional. It provides structure and symmetry, line and color, and a na
tural order of composition. Culturally, people often signal their financial arrival with traditional decorative design. Primary to the language is its emotional connection to nature. Very often designers will use the natural rhythm of decorative motifs to connect with organic beauty in the world. Today’s decorative design is often tradition with a twist familiar, shapes and patterns used in refreshingly creative ways.
Mix and Match is an option for those who feel constrained choosing just one design style. This tableware trend is beco
ming more and more popular thanks to today’s relaxed attitude in home decor. Table setting rules that were once followed are now broken. The result is a more creative, eclectic and visually stimulating dining presentation. Feel free to mix modern with classic, decorative with modern, or classic with decorative to find a look that’s truly your own. With all the innovative new shapes, textures and finishes to choose from, the possibilities are exciting and infinite.
