Suggestions for Fabrics and Carpets Pl.08
1923
Think of this as a 1920s Pinterest board for fabric designers. Emile-Allain Séguy published this collection of 'Suggestions' to spark creativity, featuring bold, flat colors that were all the rage in Paris. The image is a collage of three distinct vibes: a leafy green corner, a dramatic blue field of purple roses, and a bottom section filled with rhythmic, red-tied bundles that look like sheaves of wheat dancing on waves. It’s a perfect snapshot of the transition from flowing Art Nouveau nature to the punchy geometry of Art Deco.
