Textured and Matte Finishes
Textured ceramic finishes, such as ribbed or carved surfaces, are trending for their ability to add depth and tactile interest to a space. Matte pieces, in particular, are gaining popularity for their understated elegance. These finishes work well with both modern minimalist interiors and rustic farmhouse styles.

What is Kintsugi?
Beauty in Imperfection/Broken is Beautiful
Kintsugi is the exquisite Japanese Artform of repairing breaks in pottery using gold paint. The gold repair is symbolic; calling attention to the flaws in the piece rather than hiding them. The message is a metaphor: We are more beautiful for all of our emotional and physical scars, flaws and imperfections.

What is Brutalism?
Brutalist design is characterized by its raw, unfinished look, often featuring exposed concrete, blocky forms, and a utilitarian aesthetic. It emphasizes functionality and the honesty of materials, rather than ornamentation or polished finishes. The term 'Brutalism' itself comes from the French phrase 'béton brut,' meaning raw concrete. Has an influence on Nordic and Scandinavian design and architecture.

What is Japandi?
Japandi is an interior design and architecture style that blends the aesthetics of Japanese and Scandinavian design. It's a fusion of minimalist Japanese design principles and the cozy, functional simplicity of Scandinavian styles. The term 'Japandi' is a portmanteau of Japanese and Scandinavian.
Key characteristics of Japandi include:
+ Minimalism/ Both Japanese and Scandinavian design emphasize simplicity and uncluttered spaces.
+ Natural Materials/ Wood, linen, and other natural elements are frequently used.
+ Neutral Color Palette/ Earthy tones, muted colors, and a focus on natural light are common.
+ Clean Lines and Functionality/ Furniture and decor are chosen for their functionality and simple, elegant forms.
+ Wabi-Sabi/ The Japanese philosophy of finding beauty in imperfection is sometimes incorporated, adding a touch of rustic charm
