Lilly Pulitzer Design is Back
Artaic was featured in the October issue of Unique Homes Magazine in an article titled,”Lilly Pulitzer Design is Back.” The article featured the design expertise of Artaic’s design director, Kait Paradowski. Shown in the article was a project that Artaic collaborated on with Ledden Palimeno Landscape Company for a residence in Philadelphia, PA. The floral mosaic was inspired by Prairie Bloom from Artaic’s Flourish Collection and is a modern way to bring Lilly Pulitzer-inspired design into any space.
“Artaic collaborated with Ledden Palimeno Landscape Company to create this stunning outdoor mosaic for residents in Philadelphia. Inspired by Prairie Bloom from Artaic’s Flourish Collection, the design is the perfect backsplash for an outdoor kitchen in a private courtyard. Featuring Artaic’s ¾ -inch Vitreous Glass, the design brings the perfect pop of blues and greens to the space, while adding a calming quality thanks to the tranquil floral design.
Perhaps to the chagrin of many elder millennials, the cult classic category of vibrant prints and energetic colors (ala Lilly Pulitzer) has re-entered the design scene. And the preppy pinks and greens aren’t just limited to clothing. Brands such as Big Chill, Artaic, and Nemo Tile + Stone are taking notice and stepping up with appropriately dressed products to match the moment. ‘The bold hues in their iconic Palm Beach-style prints embrace sunshine, optimism, and fun — and that never goes out of style,’ says Kait Paradowski, design director at Artaic.
How to make bold colors work in your interior design:
Start with neutrals and whites as the foundation. Whether you are decorating a studio apartment or your forever home, bold prints and daring colors sing by starting with a neutral canvas of field tile, or elevating it with a glossy or opalescent finish.
Keep your colors on a similar spectrum. When in doubt, keep to the same color family, like lime green and turquoise or sunshine yellow and coral. Use these unmistakable palettes as your inspiration, we know they work!
Think of them for a feature wall or maximalist artworks. Let these noteworthy colors and patterns pop by introducing them to a space where they command the room without being overwhelming. Is that white wall behind your headboard feeling bare? What about your run-of-the-mill powder room? Amp up your space thoughtfully by considering a single wall to make your statement.
Bring nature in to help ground your space with touches of rattan, bamboo and live plants.” – Kait Paradowski, design director at Artaic
