Amara, the luxury home accessories boutique, is pleased to announce the arrival of the Missoni Home 2008 collection. Amara is the largest online stockist of Missoni Home, so fans of the iconic and vibrant range will be sure to keen to check out Amara's website to see what Missoni has to offer for this season.
The philosophy behind the collection is that the home is a harmony of forms, tones and enjoyment. The home is still a refuge but also a place to create positive messages and express a warm welcome.
The multicolored dream of the 2008 collection captures an air of botanic parks, forests and imaginary gardens. An intriguing game of blending and altering elements and emotions, mixing indoor with outdoor atmospheres and combining sunny colors with shadowy tones. In this playful, imaginary habitat, the complex of textures, motifs, decors and harmonies of filtered colours – the product of a lighthearted alchemy – order themselves into compositions that are balanced and precise, never random.
Some of the features of the exciting new collection include:
Prints that are dense, assertive or faded. Relief and layered designs achieved with sophisticated finishing techniques. Innovative details, like light metallic plating on stainless steel and crystalline patinas that imprison embroidered designs.
The fabrics with flower and mushroom prints are like an artist's palette, with all the wit of a cartoon and the incisiveness of naturalistic tableaux. Individual profiles and silhouettes arranged like elements in a decoupage, interlaced like garlands. Stripes in effervescent and multihued tones crisscross stamps and polka-dots, and shape and edge delicate butterfly profiles.
Solid colors create endless contrasts in combinations of crimson, cream and charcoal as well as two-tone optical effects. Often stripes are invaded by clouds of polka-dots and butterflies that flutter about calmly. Single colors form backdrops to velvety relief motifs.
The backgrounds are satin, tulle, taffeta, double, piquet, percale, damask linen and velvet. Plus there's cotton, linen blends, viscose and wool, as well as terry toweling and velour with reversible jacquard and printed finishes.
