Natural History Museum Thursday 16th February

After visiting the V&A we decided to pop over to the Natural History Museum as it is across the road. We found plenty of inspiration here in terms of materials and colour for our design work.





















These minerals are beautiful. The colours are very on trend for AW12 in rich purples and Turquoises. These colours we have found will continue on through SS13 also.

We found further colour inspiration in these hummingbirds. This cabinet is over 200 years old and the colours are still so vibrant and gorgeous.





Peacock Blue, Turquoise, Purple and Yellow are all on trend for the following season. We enjoyed looking at the birds in particular as we have noted Bird trends. Philip Treacy did a collection back in 2008 on bird hats. Perhaps these may influence the designs of now, 4/5 years on... (source http://rockthetrend.com)
