Interior Design Trends: 2012 - Typography

Typography has been big all year for 2011 & expect to see this style of interior design and art propelled into its peak of popularity as we move into 2012.  Mix-up colours and fonts, inject subtle colour into monotones. Use puns, play on words, swap icons for words, play with multilingual phrases - all with a DIY ethic. 

By mixing up colours and fonts with letters, numbers and monotone, artists have put iconic images in place of words and even gone multilingual to enhance their artwork. By being an art category and trend with no traditional boundaries it has proved an inspirational style of art among artists and art lovers alike.

• Re-arranging and playing with letters and words. 
• Displaying ideas DIY ethic - hanging with pegs / string

• London Typography  -- use words / phrases / places & mix up with Graphic design.
• Play on words - injecting graphics instead of words. 

For the pallete you are looking at a rich selection of pastel colours.  Deep rich pastels mixed up with heavy slate greys work well.
