Winter Neon - Textures Forecast

Here at inspiration book we are always in search for the newest trends,
so also for the upcoming SL Christmas holidays.
Here our vision on Christmas 2012 ! And it will be bright, very bright !
 

Our main base will be white, optical white. Almost illume, like the snow outside reflect a bright white light inside our homes. The white base also make it all look more modern, positive and fresh.
Second in line, a neutral gray, along untreated natural wood. And if you don't like the natural shades, then we overpaint all wood furniture just white.
New for Christmas 2012, bright neons ! Candy pink, shiny yellow and strawberry red will make your new interior glow and twinkle !

Note: As this is a new trend, our Inspiration Book team needed to design a lot of new fabrics and textures for the next sets. Our base textures are all from SL stores and designers, which we modified.


Bright yellow and optical whites for a positive mood.

White is never "just white", white comes in a lot of shades and tones. From clean modern bricks to some more distressed looks, printed wallpaper or patterned cement, as long its white, it is the perfect base for our Winter Neon mood.
