NOSTALGIA
Rawness involves accepting and using the things that are organic and basic in their natural, untouched state. Nostalgia reminds us of how life was in the past and hoping to bring that back in the future. Divergence is accepting the unordinary and different, unique ways of doing things in the future. Instantaneous brings about the idea that things will be happening very quickly. Action tells us that we will be on the move.

With rawness, the world goes back to basics. We see people and items using their natural, wholesome states. In the environment, there is a push for recycling and up scaling various different products and items that once were thought to be useless. Beauty and pureness is found in organic and natural states. Colors are earth tones and rich.

Prepare to stroll to the past for nostalgia. There is a wanting for tradition and vintage. There are soft fabrics such as lace, fur, and velvets to evoke a dreamy sensation. People are now more in-tune with one another and care about each other’s feelings. Colors are dreary and dull.
