Johnny Karmak, interior designer and stylist, has a “fruit room” in her home in Denbury, Connecticut. Colorful artificial artificial sets each centimeter: from cherry ceiling devices to strawberry lateral table and a bunch of other juicy precious stones in decorative forms.
It is part of the trend: the love of fresh fruits and vegetables is shown not only in the kitchen, but also in images all over the house. The feed perceives it as a fun escopism, and “the reason for the conversation and the celebration.” Design experts say it also reflects the cultural hugs of sustainability and raised connection with nature.
“There is a certain romance on the farmer’s counter-foam-he speaks of a pastoral lifestyle that is all these days,” says Rachel Harder Barrett, editor-in-chief of Country Living. “This gravity to create motives is crossed with spikes interested in gardening, healing and antiques.”
Barrett sees a tendency all over at home to clothing. It notes the recent viral trend of tomato -the summer of summer; Together with red and different tomato iterations, the mood was the Mediterranean cafe, beach walks and lazy summer days.
“The tomato girl of the summer is obviously well running, but now there is a whole bumper harvest of products to choose from: from cabbage and radish to strawberries and peaches,” the Barrett says.
Nostalgia too in the game
Barrett sees the revival of interest around cabbage and salad, which were common motifs in the 18th and 19th centuries. CabbageWare and salad enjoyed the revival with the Palm Bich crowd in the 60s, with fans such as Jacqueline Kennedy, Bunny Mellon and Frank Sinatra. Now they have found a new audience.
“This is due to the” Graduary Designer Movement “, which was engaged in favorite relics,” says Barrett. “Target recently introduced the inspired CabbageWare collection, which has collected more than 15 million Tiktok reports.”
Social media helped manage the fruit tendency of the decor. In 2023, the Tiktokers were confused over the lemon -shaped ceramic chair in HomeGoods. The work dispersed, but the popularity of tables similar to citrus fruits continued to grow. The interior design of this winter, decor and lifestyle in Paris and Frankfurt, Germany, sometimes feel more like live markets than trade fairs.
The cabins in Maison et Objet and Ambiente were full of seedlings decorated with 3D -vine and watermelon; Mirrors surrounded by fright or pineapple; Covered with tomatoes cups, glasses and dishes. The shades of the lamp and the tablecloths wore skillful images of berry baskets and carrots. The pillows burst with juicy prints. Vases were crowded, pepper, clay or papier.
The design editor in Los Angeles and the author of Cortney Porter was at the Ambiente fair at the Frankfurt Fair and gladly saw playful instructions what designers took a tendency. “The colors were oversaturated, the forms were exaggerated and cartoons,” she said.
And she liked the obvious connection with a healthy life. “There is an emphasis on sustainable materials and adolescence. People are nostalgic for natural wealth,” she said.
Designers just want to have fun
Fodder with social media records include @vintagehowpony, says the fruit has its most popular design project, “and this is from -the -link cartoons such as Dr. Crossing and Crossing Animals. It just makes people happy.” Fantastic fruits called Truffula are found in “Lorax”. And the fruits in video games for the intersection of animals serve as tokens of trade, village builders and currency.
The feed gives a small personality with its favorite fruit. “Cherries flirtatious and funny. Strawberries are like their younger sisters, caterasie and sweet in nature,” he says. The author of the culinary book and the food columnist Eliz Whitney perceived what is sometimes referred to in social media as a “grocery girl”. Her apartment has a wreath of metal mushrooms and a ceramic stool that looks like sliced lemon. Then there are all things from a banana: dishes, salt and pepper, napkins rings.
Whitney says she has been attracted to food all her life, collecting funny works from discounts and thrift stores. But when she moved from New York to Los -Angeles, she went for the sale of the estate. “I received my first glass-bolgarian pepper, peach and pear glass. These works received it on a full collection mission.
This is a trend that covers aesthetics, says Barrett. “If your style is more retro or youthful, you can take a small kitsch. For a more complex look, choose the motives of the fruit in the form of wall and fabric,” she says. So, eat it or decorate it; There are many ways to show your love for your favorite vegetables or fruits.
“Dressing my home with this aesthetics is an experiment in the self-expression, to which so many people are connected,” says Karmak, “I like to see it.”
