Modern romance: ruffles are now giving interiors fashionable playfulness

Ruffles in the home? There are rather antiquated pictures in front of the inner eye. They are reminiscent of Ömchen dollhouses with pointed cakes, embroidered decorative pillows, curtains. And just discussed details in between. Like the daily blanket of velvet on the bed or heavy valance curtains on the window. It seemed unlikely that ruffles can appear modern at home and not only quote Oscar Wilde or Marie-Antoinette for years. But as trends say so beautiful: life -believed life longer. And in times of Coquette-Core, where one sweet stylistic device after the other coquettish moves in at home, ruffles are at home for the designers-and are now surprisingly cool.

Young creative people are now taking their sweet, dreamy romance and giving them an adult and conceptual image. The model was the fashion here: For a few years now, young labels from Scandinavia have been interpreting ruffles in a contemporary and modern way. AtCecilie BahnsenorWadaAre you artistic ornamental on clothes or blouses and give the designs more plasticity and volume. Even in pastel shades such as powder pink or sky blue, the pieces appear artistically sculptural and have nothing more of dreamy Laura Ashley, but radiate urban avant -garde. A alienation effect that fits into our time, where femininity and their fashionable-classic attributes are repeatedly defined and questioned.

Translated into the interior, this means: Here, too, the ruffles are used plastic and decorates instead of fabrics with cute tar lunbits, monochrome designs in white, cream or pastel. The styling partners are simple, give the ruffles the first step and worried for an optical break. For example, polished stainless steel as a combination partner. It is a bit like the grandmother gets lost in an Acne Studios store and transforms.

If you prefer a puristic interior, you can slowly approach the living trend with individual ruffles such as pillows, pillows, napkins or bed clamps. The effect is still there: the ruffles in modern settings themselves surprise more warmth and make you smile. The over the contrast is just the rough, for example thick ceramic instead of fine porcelain.

If you dare to do more, you now use ruffles more spacious and space -shaping. Because an old interior idea is modern: a small curtain is hung up under the sink in the bathroom or the kitchen sink. For example, he hides open shelves behind it and brings some vintage vibe into the room. So that it does not work oll, the rest of the look is clear and simple. For example, graphic kitchen blocks with narrow shelves instead of classic upper cabinets.

In contrast, the tables of Georgia Merritt, for example, do without vintage vibes, which look like small ghosts. With steel plates on white art ruffles. Or the pendant lights from Studio Ebur, which hang down from the ceiling like small tents and are handmade from Pierre Frey. For them, the ruffles look like it must have worked in the first wedding when it came up in the Renaissance: wonderfully irritating and visionary.
