Forty years of Decorex launched the beginning of London Design week again held at the ever picturesque setting of Syon Park. With over 400 exhibitors, a wealth of experience was reflected in opulent style combining the best of the past and present. Creating innovative future design trends, Decorex brings together an abundance of designer goods, launching new products and the latest in colour direction.
Brands such as Cole and Son, Sian Zeng and Charlotte Jade capture a tropical infusion of rainforest activity brought to life with a vivid colour palette of aquamarine, hot pink, burnt orange and teal blues. Deeper background tones were evident in providing a richness of colour allowing for pattern to stand out as a statement.

Other colour combinations gave more of a classic feel with indigo blues, grey and moss greens accented with the popular metallic choice of majestic gold.
Natural hues mixed with shades of soft mauves take note from Dulux’s colour of the year, Heart Wood.

Whilst pantones 2018 release of colour reflects a balance of primary tones of ‘Cherry Tomato’ red, ‘Palace Blue’ and a green tinted ‘Meadowlark’ yellow. A calmer collection of shades are also included to soften a palette, ‘Almost Mauve’, ‘Ash Rose’ and ‘Nile Green’. Margo Selbys range of fabric really grasps the bright and light poppy geometric trend seen below.

Contemporary design was strongly influenced by marble and mineral textured effects. Organic bleeds of tonal colour palettes and tactile surfaces gave a real natural feel. Hayles and Howe scagliola collections imitate marble and other hard stone surfaces with a powerful injection of on trend colours of jade greens, rusted orange and indigo blue contrasted with graphite greys and muted browns.

​Botanic prints and tropical palms influenced by Pantones greenery bring walls and floors to life with an organic feel.
Digitally inspired tribal prints also inject some vibrance of colour, mixed with Ikatted repeating patterns creating a modern twist.
Stencilled and silhouetted pattern with textured backgrounds create a more simplistic and sophisticated style of ornate design.

​Watercolour and paint splashed washes create a more contemporary look when painted with a hand drawn feel.
Bluebellgray capture a playful take on loosely painted plantlife and perfectly balance layers of colour with highlights of yellow and fuschia rose tones.

​Tribal inspired cushions and oversized traditional florals were modernised with moody backgrounds and dramatic jewel tones.
Just as jewels do, colours shine and highlight pattern whilst also transforming colourful brights into neutral backgrounds.
Picture
Traditional styles presented opulence, decadence and ornamental drama with rich
velvety fabrics illuminated by oversized chandeliers.
Jacobean embroidery, tapestry with birds and peacocks create a luxurious interior whilst giving a feeling of oriental style.
​
An inspiring and exciting trip to Decorex remembers its past whilst designed for the future.
