That’s only one reason that I am delighted that décor and design is continuing with its colourful spree in the year ahead. The splashes of neon, clashing prints, gleaming metallics and a 2013 winter that is going to be wall to wall purple, simply fill me with happiness and a sense of optimism.

This optimism is not entirely unfounded either. The past year at Decorex SA has seen record numbers in terms of exhibitors and visitors and when you see what the team has planned for 2013, we expect the pattern to continue.

But this is not because we’re a particularly clever bunch of people, it’s because South Africa has truly come of age as far as décor and design is concerned.

Every week we hear about another South African designer finding their way into global décor emporiums such as Anthropologie, Merci and Westelm. It gives me such a kick that local stars like fabric designer Skinny laMinx have online stores shipping world-class merchandise all over the planet.

And what a thrill to interview an interior de-signer like David Muirhead and his portfolio shows as many spaces in South Africa, as in London, Dubai and the south of France!When it comes to our own retail environment,

there’s very little in terms of the big interna-tional names that you can’t get in South Africa. Long before Zara arrived in Sandton, some of the most desirable design brands such as Tom Dixon and Kartell were available in Joburg and Cape Town. Now the cult brands such as De Padova are even arriving.

Global travelers such as colour guru Leatrice Eiseman and trend forecaster Li Edelkoort cherish their opportunities to visit South Africa and experience this country’s unique energy and lifestyle.

But by far the most satisfying development is that South Africans are starting to shop and decorate with style and flair – not just copying what others are doing. From budget to billionaire lifestyles, all the signs are there that South Africans have found their own style and an appreciation for good quality and great design.

Now all we need to do is outlaw Tuscan design anywhere outside of Italy and my life will be complete!

Until next time,Jacquie

THE FUTURE’S LOOKING BRIGHTAlthough my wardrobe is pretty neutral, my home is a fun, colour-ful place where I have found an excuse to do something with red in almost every single room.

TRUE COLOURSThe highly anticipated Plascon 2013 Colour Forecast is here. Detail speaks to Anne Roselt, Plascon colour manager, about this year’s theme of Balance.

Page 9: it's all in the detail by Decorex SA

This year’s colour forecast is a statement about our identity in the modern world. So says Anne Roselt, Plascon colour manager.

“We are faced with such uncertainty, from the gloomy economy to ecological and environmental disasters. Intertwined with this is the excitement of sporting and cultural events, fashion and new technology. So what society is really craving is a balance. Trends are really a reflection of what is happening around us, and as the mood changes, so do the feelings. This forecast depicts where we see colour moving. Through the calm found in the palettes called Pause and Simplicity, or the energy of Contrast and Dare, it explores ways of using colour to create harmony and balance.”

Now in its 14th year, the Plascon colour fore-cast continues to bring inspiration to South Africans in an interesting and accessible way. This involves distilling input from colour experts, international research and interior design and lifestyle trends. From calm white tones to energetic brights, the four themes provide practical and creative ways to explore the concept of balance.

Light white tones are taken to the next level with the judicious use of accent colours, metallic tones and textured layering. This approach to neutral colours adds a sense of interest and depth, which allows for the creation of spaces that are calm and collected, but still distinctive.

KEY INFLUENCES Everyday escape, understated elegance, modern sanctuary spaces, raw and refined, whites to calm and sooth, burnished copper and antiqued gold, rough textures, coun-tryside sophistication, safari chic.

This modern and peaceful theme appeals to the desire for calmness and serenity. It works well with natural textures and found objects. The green brings with it a sense of nature and the outdoors and is the perfect colour treatment for beautifully hand crafted pieces of furniture.

Contrast gives a personal and deeper meaning to colours that we see daily. We’re also seeing it in the fashion world with the colour blocking trend. I think that this palette will appeal to the young and young at heart and every-one who loves colour.

Contrast sees deep blues and greys used together to create a contemplative and grounded feeling. This is given a sense of energy with high contrast brights like pink and yellow. The combination may be unex-pected, but extremes of colour balance each other perfectly, keeping the overall effect in check.

KEY INFLUENCES Colour defined spaces, zinc-tones, mid-century nostalgia, 50s urban chic, vintage brights, dark sumptuous backgrounds, generous sense of space, sophisticated energy, form and order, optimism.

Page 14: it's all in the detail by Decorex SA

Pastels are updated with a grounded feeling with the addition of neutrals and greys in Pause. This collection of colours is therefore light and feminine, but still connected and mature. The overall effect hints at nostalgia, while retaining a very wel-come sense of the contemporary.

KEY INFLUENCES Sorbet tones, shimmer and sparkle, Great Gatsby, 20s femininity, cut glass, cupcake aesthetics, girlish but grownup, antiqued finishes, child-hood nostalgia, dusky rose tones, powder pastels.

Pastel colours help to lift and lighten a space, providing a familiar and nurturing feeling. This is a quietly sophisticated selection, and the use of neutrals and grey helps to make it very accessible.

Page 16: it's all in the detail by Decorex SA

With a nod to retro sensibilities, shape and colour are used to their fullest in Dare. While colour-blocking makes a bold statement, the zinc-toned brights help to keep the entire look contemporary and considered, and the overall feeling is energetic without being manic.

KEY INFLUENCES Afro-chic, colour-blocked geomet-rics, boldly minimal, folk-inspired art and craft, saturated colour, leather and painted wood, under-stated warmth, berry toned purples, familiar forms, old and new, retro influences revisited.

The big trends at the moment are around honesty and integrity – colour and design with worth. This nostalgic and authentic, but colourful palette echoes this, showing how when times are hard, colour is a well-needed pick-me-up. Cathy O’CleryJournalist, Stylist, Creative Consultant

What is the biggest colour trend for this season? It is the continuation of the orange family as key.

Colour is so subjective. What are the key influences when it comes to colour forecasting? We look at a broad range of influences, from aesthetics, films, TV, fashion and art (both fine and pop) to geography, technology, international sports events as well as socio economic factors.You’re well known for telling us that Honeysuckle Pink and Tangerine Tango were the colours of the year in 2011 and 2012, respectively! Tell us how you go about settling on a Pantone Colour of the Year? I look at all the above-mentioned factors and I travel a good bit as well. So I weigh up what is happening in many areas of the world and look out for the common denominator.Colour plays such a crucial role in the design industry. How does it affect our mood? Hugely. Think of what it feels like to walk into a shabby space with a dark foreboding feeling. Now transform it with a coat or two of paint, clean it up a bit. Don’t you feel better?

What is your greatest strength? Trying to look at both sides of the picture and to be truly objective. That is really necessary in making color choices and I constantly tell my students how important it is.You consult to both small business and Fortune 500 companies. Why do busi-nesses need a colour expert? When mil-lions of dollars are at stake, it is important to make intelligent, educated color decisions and not rely on opinions that are not well founded.What is the biggest colour trend for this season? It is the continuation of the orange family as key.Describe SA design in three words. Di-verse, intriguing, colorful.Your most coveted SA design object? That is difficult, as the last time I was here I wanted to buy one of everything! I love the crafts and I did manage to leave with a lot of jewellery.

22global view

Page 25: it's all in the detail by Decorex SA

The greatest colour of all time? All colors have the potential for greatness, it is just in the way they are combined or utilised within a specific context.If you were a colour? I’d be purpleI spend my Sundays gardening in sum-mer, taking long walks and more often than not working on something that was due yesterday.Best bargain buy ever? A Missoni sweater for way less than retail price in a vintage shop in Beverly Hills. I bought it in the 90s and am still wearing it!Biggest fashion mistake ever? Buying things ‘of the moment’ in a faraway place that you know you’re not going to wear when you get home.Best place to spend a lazy lunch? I re-ally like lunches at home. Going to a local farmer’s market and buying organically grown goodies. But in the big city of Seattle, I love The Wild Ginger. It is fusion Asian

food - pure deliciousness and all veggies or fish (I don’t eat meat).How do you relax? I love to read and watch wonderful films. My husband is a voting member of the Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, so we get about 65 films a year to review. Love it!I’m dreaming of another colorful year of travel for 2013. Favourite artist? My friend Debora House who lives in Stockholm. She is an amazing colorist.Favourite city in the world? It’s hard not to say Paris, but Lake Como in Italy is also a favourite. We visit every year for the Salone del Mobile in Milan. I am hoping to see more of SA so that I develop a favorite here.

Leatrice will be in South Africa to launch the Plascon 2013 Colour Forecast.

MEETMR GLAMOURHe’s renowned for his sleekly glamorous interiors, his love of art and his deep affinity for the city of Jozi. Few know how interior designer David Muirhead became one of SA’s most sought-after interior designers for his unique brand of sophisticated glamour. By Tess Paterson

Page 27: it's all in the detail by Decorex SA

Growing up on a farm in Kwa-Zulu Natal, David Muirhead knew exactly what he wanted to do with his life.

“I was always creating scrapbooks of homes and interiors, and from a very young age had an intense understanding of my passion for design. We grew up with an incredible sense of freedom and imagination and at the age of seven my cousin and I would scream around the farm in an old Citroen like King Farouk!”

David’s first jobs were in Durban and that was where he received his dream call-up from none other than Joburg-based Ameri-can interior designer Trisha Wilson, the person behind the glamour of many Sun International hotels. And so began David’s love affair with the city of gold.

Fast track to 2004 when David and his sister Mandy Groves decided to join forces and launch David Muirhead & Associates – an interior design firm now known as much for its high-end bespoke glamour as it is for its sense of integrity.

“I believe strongly in extending my value system into my business as well as my life. If there’s trust and good inter-personal relation-ships and if you believe in the people you associate with, ultimately the rest will fall into place,” says David.

A master at creating luxurious, richly layered spaces, David says that he’s inspired by “almost anything” – the crazy energy and wonderful diversity of Joburg, French

architecture, modernism, the synergy between old and new. “I’ll never create some-thing that’s clinical or minimalist though, and I always look at comfort before aesthetics.” While David’s passion lies in top-end residen-tial projects, he’s also in demand within the hospitality market. 54 on Bath, the dramatic refurbishment of the former Grace Hotel in Rosebank, is one of his most recent successes.

“It’s an evolution, rather than a re-invention,” he says. “We were completely respectful of the architecture which has always been celebrated by Joburgers.”

An elegant palette of silver, grey, ivory and white mingles with sexy lighting, art deco accents and supreme comfort. Key elements like the fireplaces were retained, and much of the furniture was refurbished.

“We merged the original artwork with pho-tographic prints of Joburg. It’s sassy and very South African, but New Yorkers will love it too!”

Looking ahead, one of David’s long-term projects is the creation of David Muirhead Fine Living – a retail space filled with the trademark DM glamour.

“I envisage a fabulous interactive environ-ment where I can share my vision and pas-sion for design.”

BRIGHT ANDBEAUTIFUL

Page 31: it's all in the detail by Decorex SA

Our approach to colour in 2012 was pretty monochromatic. We worked with a lot of dramatic black, both in our retail store in Kramerville and in our interiors projects, livening this up with metallic tones of cop-per and brass.

Heading into summer we’ve been experi-menting with the coral and flamingo shades that are coming through in fashion. It’s extremely versatile with a feminine 1930s glamour, especially when used with metallic accents. Funnily enough I wasn’t aware of Tangerine Tango, the Pantone Colour of the Year 2011, so it was quite validating to have such a connection to this shade!

For the year ahead we’re definitely looking at more glamour, and perhaps because of the recession, there is still a demand for luxury. We’re working a lot in velvet, keeping things plush and soft to the touch, with accents of iridescent sheen. Right now I’m loving powder-blues and aquas. The zinc-like tones of Plascon’s African Mud – from their 2013 Colour Forecast – has enormous impact when used over a large area.

Our interest has always been in colour block-ing and texture; we’re not overly fond of florals and patterns. What we’ve found is that painting walls in darker shades – the deep

browns and murky greens – creates a fantas-tic backdrop and really draws people in. Your white accents immediately look crisper and it works beautifully for displaying art. In fact when you see art on a white wall it becomes a bit like elevator music.

When it comes to furniture, consumers are making more considered purchases. It definitely comes down to quality, and there’s a growing aversion to obsolescence. Our clients are looking for amazing pieces that they won’t tire of; something they’ll enjoy for a life-time. Customers are also more aware of the inherent value in a piece. In the retail sector, upcycling remains strong as items are cost-effective and have a great patina and story.

Eggs Designs’ love of quality extends throughout our projects, and this season we’ll be working in a variety of fabrics from rich velvets and supple leathers to heavy linens.

There is so much more choice right now, and whether you’re working in cotton-silk velvets or 100% polyesters, the properties and pal-ettes have never been better.

I always put colour choices down to the mood of the times. We’re in the middle of a fairly unrelenting downturn, yet in a strange way it’s made people more adventurous. It’s a bit like the ‘red lipstick’ syndrome where women buy makeup to raise their spirits when times are hard.

Consumers are definitely wiser. They’re making more careful choices and buy-ing pieces that will last. In turn I think they’re less responsive to the too-quiet, too-sophisticated tones, and they want something that pops. They might not be choosing acid orange, but definitely brighter, warmer, feel-good colours. It’s much the same with fabrics – the botanical inspired prints have always been there, but there’s a sense of nostalgia attached to them. It’s part of our need to be assured that things are not all bad.

Accent walls remain popular – they’re easy on the pocket and fun to do. I think the concept has evolved from the single red wall though, and people are experimenting in more creative ways. Think of adding texture by creating a golden ripple of mosaics in a recess, for instance, or making a fireplace pop with copper or mild steel.

A two-tone wall is a great way to make a statement, and in a classical interior you could use different tones above and below the dado rail. The trick is to use a non-traditional colour!In older houses with tall ceil-ings, a contemporary look is

instantly achieved by painting the walls and ceilings in the same shade. Take a beautiful pearly grey that reflects the light – not only will the room appear bigger but your furni-ture will look fantastic against this backdrop.

When it comes to accessories, keep scale and proportion top of mind. Accent pieces need to respond to the rest of the space. So if you have an enormous, low sofa, make sure the scatters are substantial. The same goes for your glassware – make it bold and definite; knick-knacks have a way of getting lost. Buy

only what you love, but first make sure it works and that it has longevity.

For next year, we’re enjoying interpreting colour in a way that will last. I especially love the rich blue shades in the Contrast palette from the Plascon 2013 Colour Forecast which lend themselves to any scheme. They’re quite beautiful when mixed with orange or copper hues.

When decorating a neutral space, I always up the ante by mixing in bold accent colours such as acid yellow. A splash of yellow or green brings a shot of positive energy into a room.

These colours work beautifully as highlights and contrast well against strong neutrals like charcoal. We’re seeing the rusted orange tones coming through too, which has a slightly retro feel. This extends to the soft pink and nude spectrum, especially in fabrics, and Designers Guild has embraced this palette spectacularly well.

On the subject of fabrics, I predict a huge rise in the popularity of texture for 2013. We’re seeing washed fabrics coming through with an uneven appearance that works so beauti-fully on linens and velvelts. Prints-wise there’s a move to geometric designs, and the best of the Ikats are beautifully layered with fresh colouration.

When it comes to working magic on living spaces, paint is the simplest, easiest solution. In times of recession especially, there’s a need to inject a sense of energy and lift a mood. Paint is one of the quickest and most under-

rated ways to fix things, from refurbing a piece of furniture to updating a room. It’s relatively inexpensive and it’s not a huge commitment – when you tire of it you simply change to something else. The wonderful thing is that each person brings a totally different point of view to the same colour palette.

I’m particularly enjoying the neutral tones of Simplicity within the Plascon 2013 Colour Forecast. Add to this a pop of energy like the grass green colour called Dragon’s Hide, plus an interesting mix of mineral and metallic shades, and the overall feeling is very natural.

I’ve always lived in dark moody spaces, but I’m definitely veering towards calmer tones in my new home. I’m enjoying the ease that comes with white, off-white and grey.

I have always loved working with white. I like to work with a very neutral palette that serves as my backdrop in design. White is so incredibly timeless and it gives a room a strong architectural presence.

I think colour has the most impact when it’s incorporated into an interior as an accent – whether in a beautiful artwork, dramatic scatters, textured carpets or an accent wall. The current trends are headed towards bright colours like turquoise, orange and cerise pink as well as bold patterns like Ikats and zigzags, referenced by Da-vid Hicks and Madeline Weinrib. These patterns are also very prominent in flat-weave carpets and dyed Persian carpets. When I do bring in colour, I generally stick to one or two colours and repeat those throughout, rather than bringing in a dif-ferent scheme into each room. It’s important to create a sense of continuity.

I love the orange that is a strong colour trend this year. I remember hearing that orange in interiors should only be used in the form of an Hermès box! And at the time I tended to agree with that. But this season I‘ve been throwing in orange with everything. It’s vibrant and energetic and com-mands attention without being as overpowering as red.

Pastels found in Pause from the Plascon 2013 Colour Forecast are also a strong colour trend going into next year, together with other soft, dusky tones, these can be interpreted in a very light and feminine way.

Whatever your chosen colour spectrum, my interiors remain understated, personal and quietly refined. Working with texture is so important, and it’s a wonderful way to create a layered look. I like to include natural and painted woods, beaded scatters with chunky fabrics, grey wicker furniture and accessories in glass and perspex. I’m also using a lot of fabrics with a trellis motif which adds a modern yet timeless appeal. I think a good room is one that’s richly layered while maintain-ing a simple restraint.

What’s your blog about?All the things that catch my interest and eye - from interior trends and beautifully deco-rated spaces, to shops I love, talents I want to share, clever designs and products I’m lusting after. I also include destinations that are on my wish list or that I’ve been to, and recipes that I think my readers would enjoy.Best thing about Facebook?I absolutely love my website Facebook page - it’s like a mini blog. Interestingly because more people feel comfortable on Facebook, the interaction levels are much higher. I find it very rewarding as a marketing tool for my blog. Do you tweet?Totally, and I read my timeline religiously. I’m not as disciplined as I used to be about tweeting a good balance of interesting info and tweets referring back to my sites, but it’s on my to do list - good twitter etiquette is es-sential to creating a worthwhile presence. Favourite local designers? I really admire Heather Moore from Skinny laMinx who has made a name for herself with her surface and textile designs. I think Kirsten Goss is an extraordinary jewellery talent and I have such admiration for Patricia Driscoll’s beautiful photography and Gabby Raaff ’s extraordinary watercolours.Most coveted design object?A minimalist prefab Bach house complete with extraordinary (but oh-so-spare) interiors in the middle of the CedarbergBest market in your area?I live a couple of minutes away from the Bluebird Garage in Muizenberg. It’s held every Friday evening and is a really laidback

PRINTSCHARMING From exuberant painterly florals and updated Ikats to exclusive artisanal designs, statement prints are causing a stir. Tess Paterson looks at this season’s star attractions

BLOOM BOOM THE NEW FLORALS

Home Fabrics

Call it a reaction to the recession or a need for a fresh, modern take on the world, there’s a growing demand for more pattern and colour. And the floral, with its limitless interpreta-tions, is here to stay.

Page 47: it's all in the detail by Decorex SA

St Leger & Viney - Villa Nova High Society

“Florals remain a key trend, and the scale is being played with more than ever,” says Gary Searle of St Leger & Viney “The new florals are piling on colour and there’s a fresh take on the traditional palettes. Lizzo’s vast-scale printed floral for instance – in chartreuse, raspberry and lavender - gives a contemporary twist to a classic design. We’re seeing an uneven visual texture coming through too – a water-colour effect with the sense of an artist’s brush.”

“The scale is certainly larger and there is a focus on beautiful painterly execution which has been driven by the digital printing revolution,” adds Haidee Kramer of Home Fabrics. “Today one can capture and interpret the exact paint brush strokes and intricacies of the artists’ work without hindrance. This has lead to a new surge in photo-realistic and painterly works which are absolutely captivating. Tricia Guild leads in this field with her fabulous Ornamental Garden, Rugosa and her new Madame Butterfly prints.”

“Floral prints have such historical importance” says Hanneke Swart of Mavromac, “but they need to evolve and meet the needs of a new genera-tion. Traditional houses such as Colefax & Fowler have responded brilliantly to this by using crisper designs, more contemporary palettes and incredible quality linens instead of glazed chintzes. The brand and the history are there, but you’re getting a fantastic new take on it.”

WORLD TRIBE -THE IKAT EVOLUTION

The epitome of globally stylish ethnic design, the Ikat remains a strong trend and works beautifully with the abundance of geo-metric and more retro-inspired prints. “The Ikat was born out of an appreciation for crafted textiles that had a tribal feel yet were incredibly sophisticated,” says Haidee. “There is something time-less and classic about the design and most interpretations tried to imitate the complex dyed and woven effects. The new-look Ikats are fresh and more contemporary with a smart simplicity and clarity of design and form.

“Many of the contemporary American designers rely on Ikats to portray a love of pattern and introduce layering,” adds Gary. “In the top-end market especially, they’re used to convey a sense of wordliness and global travel.”

The younger market is hav-ing a strong influence on pattern. They may not have the understanding of ar-chival prints such as toiles, but they’ll choose that toile in a shocking pink or burnt orange and they’ll know just how to use it.

ARTISANAL PRINTSTHE ULTIMATE LUXURY

Turning back the clock, artisanal designers are becom-ing sought after for small quantities of fabrics produced in a directional way. Designers such as Lewis & Wood, Christopher Farr and Robert Kime all have custom ranges that allow for truly bespoke interiors – as do several of our local fabric houses. “Going the artisanal fabric route says a great deal about the client and their choices,” comments Gary. “It’s automatically a costly option, but for that sector of the market the appeal lies in the exceptional quality and exclusivity.”

Lewis & Wood

Amid all the global turmoil and economic uncertainty, there’s a renewed appreciation for heritage and tradition – the reassurance of things known and loved since childhood. Retro prints and geometrics are following in the pastel-toned footsteps of fashion, and a whole new generation is falling for 1950s inspired design.

“With their invaluable archive, Sanderson is a great example of interpreting different eras in a way that captures the modern imagina-tion,” says Gary. “Whether the designs are rooted in the arts and crafts movement or fifties’ glamour, their stalwart fans have always loved the sense of history. And their younger audience gives that same heritage a fresh retro spin.”

THE CUTTING CREW

SKINNY LAMINX

In 2006, self-taught illustrator Heather Moore began teaching herself simple screen-printing, using stencils she’d cut by hand. “I started a blog and opened an online shop in order to try and sell some of my products,” she explains.

“The items were well-received and lead to wholesale requests, and within a short time I found I had a growing business on my hands. I like to say that it’s a hobby that got out of control, but it’s evolved into a well-run company. Together with my business partner Pearl Thompson, we have a shop and studio in central Cape Town, two online shops, and a wholesale business supplying stores worldwide.”

The first Skinny laMinx products were tea towels and table napkins, and branching out into selling running metres of fabric is a fairly recent development.

“Fabric sales are growing, which is exciting for us. We sell fabrics to the trade through the Silk & Cotton Co, which is highly ef-fective as many of our fabrics coordinate extraordinarily well.”

Heather describes her designs as individual, simple, clear and accessible.“They seem to appeal to people all over the world who share my interest in the shapes, colours and styles inspired by mid-20th century design. I have my goods and fabric stocked in shops all over the USA, in Japan, Scandinavia, Australia, and of course here at home. My designs communicate my appreciation for the pared-back modernist aesthetic that values simplicity in style and honesty of materials.”

As far as production goes, Heather has kept the process determinedly local and human-scale. “My base cloth is made in King William’s Town, and is professionally printed in Mait-land. I have a mother-daughter cutting team who cut all my fabric products in my studio, and a single seamstress who has a studio of her own in the Bo Kaap.”

Looking towards 2013, Heather has plans to extend the Mini laMinx kids’ range, both on home ground and in an exciting collabora-tion with a US company. “I also hope to be producing more experimental, small-run, items and collaborating with other local designers and artists.”

When it comes to international on-trend ap-peal, delivered in a fresh and savvy way, Lula Fabrics has become the local go-to brand.

“Apart from our distinctive designs, the Lula price point has been an important part of our success,” says owner Melissa Kerkhoff.“I believe our products are affordable. We’re trying very hard to keep mills and printers from going out of business, while retaining the look, feel and standards that we’ve cre-ated. Because our fabric is produced in SA, there’s a misconception that this is a cheaper option. But it’s way more expensive that produced in China!”

Lula Fabrics’ current collection, Silk Road, was inspired by Melissa’s love of handcraft-ed, ancient textile designs.

“I’ve always loved the textured, woven and strié (natural, soft striped) effects which re-emerged with the Ikats and Suzanis of a few years ago.”

In her designs Sarawak and Kashgar, Melissa used a negative and positive version of the same Ikat-type motif, while Timur is a glori-ous six-colour Suzani. The collection ties together with key cotton plains and Filigry – an intricate, florally curtaining co-ordinate.

“Lula Fabrics had always kept to a certain colour scheme which was both part of our brand and extremely user-friendly for decorators,” says Melissa. “This season we’ve thrown a gorgeous burnt red and salmon into the mix. It’s earthy, on-trend and works beautifully with the existing palette of sea-foam, aqua and chartreuse.”

Being a smaller, hands-on fabric house, Lula Fabrics is able to offer a custom-colour ser-vice. “Clients can choose any of our designs and have it printed in a colour of their

choice. It’s a wonderful addition to bespoke projects, and we have minimum orders of 50m.”

Melissa has just opened a dedicated show-room in Joburg’s Kramerville, and is in the process of developing an on-line shop. “Our range of accessories is proving very popular, including ottomans, handbags, shoes and floor cushions. At the moment these are sold via our countrywide showrooms, but our aim for 2013 is to have a stronger retail presence on-line.”

Given the challenging economy and the demise of many local mills and printers, surviving as a small player is admirable. “Circumstances are tough,” says Melissa, “but South Africans aren’t sissies. I’ve seen many of my colleagues in the industry using creative, innovative ways to succeed. It’s all about buckling down and making it work. We’re a very tenacious nation.” www.lulafabrics.co.za

On the brink of opening their flagship show-room and retail space in Cape Town, the much-admired duo behind Design Team can only be described as dynamic.

“The new space will represent the total De-sign Team experience in every respect,” says co-owner Lise Butler. “We will showcase our fabric ranges, furniture samples and décor accessories, as well as our new children’s clothing collection, Sillybilly. It’s a whole brand under one roof, and a natural progres-sion from our beginnings eleven years ago.”The brand has long been perceived as the must-have option for off-beat prints telling a South African story, and Lise and her partner Amanda Haupt continue to deliver new and funky designs.

“We’ve always been inspired by what’s around us, and our ability to tell a story through our designs is what sets us apart. Our latest collection is decidedly in-your-face, and includes local icons like the rhino and Mrs Ples. With this range we’re digging deep, and it’s both intellectual and sophis-ticated, but with our ever-present quirky touch.”

Design Team is one of the few firms still supporting local mills, and for their Olka Polka clothing range, order 12 000 metres of locally knitted fabric each month.“We work with mills and dye-houses in Durban and Cape Town, and the quality is far superior to the imports.”

The team has spent the past four years streamlining its production into an efficient, sustainable machine.

“We’re at the next phase where we can de-velop and grow new business,” explains Lise. “Having almost total control over our manu-facturing is an enormous advantage. We can offer custom work, for instance, so designers can offer their clients total exclusivity.”

As far as trends go, Lise sees the homeware direction following right behind fashion. “Heading into 2013 our apparel will be strong on pastels, and this will flow into the fabric ranges and accessories. With the popularity of social media, people see and want things instantly. So as much as we’re influenced by trends, we certainly don’t see it as the be all and end all. If we’re passion-ate about something, regardless of its origin, then we’ll pursue it.”

And when their new ranges appear, don’t be surprised if you hear it first on twitter. “We think the inherent formality of fabric launches is over,” says Lise. “Facebook and twitter provide amazing, instant feedback, and we see them as powerful information tools. There are so many creative ways to market your products and inform the world about what you’re doing.” You can follow them on @DT_DESIGNTEAM

Tell us about your latest rangeWe’ve just launched the Dansk range which is inspired by my love of mid-century modern pieces, with a distinctly Scandinavian twist. It’s made up of the Dansk server and sofa and the Pebble coffee table – each with a nod to vintage pieces of the 50s and 60s.What materials did you choose?We’ve combined oiled oak with ducoed accents for a modern spin. There’s a hint of chartreuse yellow in there too.What are the key elements of good design?Proportion and detailing. And the avoidance of over-design. I’m a big believer in less is more, in keeping things pared down and simple.

Where is South African design heading?I think there’s a real hunger for South African products. We see a lot of interest from European design blogs, and there’s no doubt we can compete with the international players. Is the SA market supportive of local design?Definitely. People want to buy local, and they’re becoming far more conscious of where and how things are made. Quality is in demand, and people are looking for beautiful designs that last.

Design for good – the meaningful connec-tion between a designer and a worthy cause – has never been more relevant than it is today. Need is everywhere, and in the world of good causes, designers have the option to choose key projects that align with their creativity, skills and experience.

And while their services are free, donat-ing time and professional input often leads to business referrals, and there’s also the marketing spin-off of positive feedback from beneficiaries. Perhaps most attractive to many designers, is the carte blanche on creativity that often comes with lending a helping hand.

“Pro bono work is very important and we choose one project each year,” says Pieter Mathews of Mathews & Associates Archi-

tects. “But as with any normal project, we have set conditions in place, such as design freedom, collaborating only with a non-profit accredited organizations, and ensuring the project will be accessible to the public.”

“You’ve got to have good back-up for design to go somewhere,” adds product designer Joe Paine, “which is why our collaboration with the M-Net Cares Café at Decorex SA and the Naledi Children’s Literacy Project (see below) worked so well. It began with design, but the whole value chain of sponsorship, market-ing, materials and manufacturing were in place. Once that’s working, there’s enormous potential to do good.”

With so much scope for impacting lives in SA, Detail looks at successful projects where design, business and genuine need have found just the right fit.

Design is taking centre stage when it comes to creating for a good cause.

Ten years ago, visionary sisters Anna and Phina Mojapelo founded the New Jerusalem Children’s Home (NJCH) on a smallhold-ing in Midrand. Their aim was to care for abandoned, orphaned, vulnerable and HIV positive children. Having long outgrown the existing buildings, NJCH was in urgent need of expansion. Rather than impersonal dormitory-style rooms, their hope was for separate houses that would feel like real homes. Enter Sean Wall and Mia Anfield of 4D and A Architects, who designed the first of three stunning living spaces, each accom-modating 25 children.

“During one of our visits we saw a container that was being used for extra storage,” says Sean. “It sparked the idea of incorporating a container system into the design, and we con-tacted US architect Adam Kalkin for advice. Adam is renowned for his use of shipping containers in sustainable design projects, and he provided invaluable input on NJCH.”

Sean explains that here at home, containers are seen as either spaza shops or part of a construction site. “Initially it was hard to sell on paper. But once our donors understood

the concept, that you can stack fully insu-lated, waterproofed containers on a concrete base – it soon gained momentum.” Not only did this solution come in way below the price of bricks and mortar build-ings, but numerous companies generously donated both skills and products. “About one third of the requirements was either donated or provided at cost,” says Mia. Making the building as green as possible, the design includes solar heating, photo-voltaics for lighting, an insulating roof garden and biodegradable effluent system.

The team is planning two more living spaces, and well as offices and a chapel. “We’ve been given free reign, and as long as it meets the children’s requirements, it’s almost like playing with Lego,” says Sean. “Our feedback from the house mothers is that the children take so much pride in their space, that they’re more responsible about their possessions. There is a huge need out there, and from the big corporates to the one-man bands, we found people incredibly willing to help.”

FUNDA SHELF

As part of an initiative by the M-Net Naledi As part of an initiative by the M-Net Naledi Children’s Literacy Project, local designers were asked to create pro bono book case designs that would appeal to primary-school children. The finished products formed part of the M-Net Cares Café at Decorex Joburg, and together with generous book donations made throughout the shows, were to be presented to various libraries. These are three of the designs.

“We based our design on the isiZulu word Funda, which means to read.” says Georg van Gass of Goet. “It’s a very literal take on the brief, with the writing forming an integral part of the construction. While it’s practical, there’s also an underlying message about the power of literacy behind it. With so many story-telling traditions being lost, reading opens the world of knowledge, wisdom and make-believe. This enables the reader to see the underlying meaning in literature and life.” www.goet.co.za

“I liked the idea of displaying books in a less conventional way, while still adhering to my clean-lined aesthetic,” says product designer Joe Paine. “It’s functional and good-looking, and I think the 45 degree angle and dramatic colours will appeal to children. It’s a modern-ist design at heart, but it’s playful too, and children get that.”

JUST EAT IT

9People have to eat fresh, homegrown food to enjoy the optimal health benefits,” says Jacques Damhuis of Positive Cycle. But the longer the delays in getting food to the consumer, the quicker the nutrients, such as vital natural sugars, are lost. So why not become an urban farmer? Through Gro4U, Jacques installs and maintains veggie gardens in the Joburg area, and also runs training workshops on growing food bio-dynamically. His motto, ‘Make your garden edible and incredible!’ 078 732 4405. www.sites.google.com/site/growyofood
