Materials and colours

The ROOTS trend impresses in its version with a strong colour palette that picks up on the elements of nature. Warm browns, soft earthy tones and muted blues create an atmosphere that radiates both cosiness and originality. These colours capture the raw beauty of nature and give every design a timeless, authentic look.

Michaela uses the materials of the ROOTS trend in a particularly harmonious way for her table decorations. She chooses the grey RAW" sheep's wool felt as a base, whose rough structure and soft feel provide a natural foundation and emphasise the earthy concept of the trend. This is complemented by a coarse Jutewhose light colour and texture add a rustic touch. The Macramé yarn in warm natural colours is added as a decorative element and brings additional naturalness to the table decoration thanks to its structure. The arrangement is rounded off by the skilful combination of branches and flowers in earthy tones, like the Coral flower, das Chinese reed and Ranunculuswhich provide vibrancy and depth through their natural shape and colouring.

The mixture of natural materials and muted colours emphasises the deep connection with nature, which forms the heart of the ROOTS trend box in the bold colours.
