Trends from IWCE

Custom home furnishings are just that - custom - and one of a kind but the trend now is to take customization even further and make your interiors completely personal down to your dishware. A new vendor in DC was DePersico Custom Design Studio. This company is a group of graphic artists that produce custom designs that can be used on anything from fabric to walls to even your china. Imagine - your personal logo on your dinner plates. Love a fabric pattern but hate the colorways it is available in? Adaptive Textiles can not only design a pattern they can also change an exisiting one into different colorways or scale. How about seeing your favorite quotation first thing in the morning? Wall Words creates custom graphics and words you can place anywhere in your home. Wow - talk about motivation!
