Stripes!



Stripes! Although not new, I seem to see a trend emerging of big, bold stripes in many types of products.



Paul Smith is synonymous with stripes. Getting his inspiration from maps of metro and subway lines, he uses them in his signature pieces. I took this photo while in London visiting one of the Paul Smith Globe shops.


I had to purchase the leather striped sandals while there of course!




Built is another brand that is synonymous with rows of graphic stripes. I own the neoprene lunch bag and a couple of camera cases.

I just got these cute little speakers today. They are made by Eco Nation in a wonderful brown and blue stripe!  Even my purse linings are striped! Are you attracted to striped accessories? If so, what products do you use in your daily life?

My house doesn't have stripes, per se, but many Greek keys. Does that count?

Theresa Cheek said...

Mark-
I would expect nothing less than greek keys in your home! Yes, they count!

Theresa, that photo of you on the sidebar, was that in China?
I love stripes too, they have gotten me out of a few stumped
design jobs.
