Interior design dressed as fashion

10th February 2011
How would you style an interior inspired from a fashion trend? Here's some expert advice from Tom Simon, the owner and founder of Hub fashion store and Architect Michael P. Johnson.

'With the myriad of cultural influences out there, fashion and interior design have no chance of moving in separate directions. Trends in fashion do appear first, but that is simply because people update their wardrobes faster than their furniture.'
'Tom Simon believes in the quiet genius, regardless of what design is being practiced. It doesn’t take a flashy, brand name designer to create a living space that is well designed or a dress that flatters the body. It simply takes a designer who is willing to listen, focus on the details that matter and respect their craft.'
'According to Michael P. Johnson, there is “no difference between fashion and design. No difference. There’s good fashion and there’s good architecture.” Maybe it’s just as effortless as that.'
I also found an interesting link between fashion and interiors from the Nomadic wonderland collection by Eunsuk Hur.

These delicate yet highly durable floral fabric pieces fit together like a puzzle and can be interlocked in various different ways to create unique pieces for fashion or interior textiles. Each individual piece creates this beautiful throw for a chair or a wonderful spring/summer dress.
