Top of Bed: Dream weavers
Lori Lester -- Home Accents Today, 3/1/2007
Sparked by a nostalgic, back-to-nature sentiment, designers are inspired by native cultural styles and embracing indigenous materials. Rustic bedding designs, inspired by traditional Navajo weaving, highlight the vibrant palette and rich textures of the old Southwest.
In a lively collection from Pendleton Woolen Mills, coral and turquoise come together to create a fresh Southwestern look in the traditional Los Ojos style ($78 to $294).
Orange adds pop to a palette of earthy browns and soothing greens in an eye-catching motif by Janellestyle ($75).
Defining the urban lodge look, Legacy's Gunnison Brick Collection trims a spicy-hued woven chenille duvet and shams in warm leather ($88 to $1,112).
Woven at a generations-old mill, the multicolored jacquard pattern from SDH revives the flavor of ancient artisans with a modern twist ($800, for queen duvet).
With its desert-inspired color scheme and bold native print, Daniel Stuart Studio's Navajo Bedding Collection is ideal for adding the flavor of Santa Fe to a lodge, loft or any space in between ($100 to $350).
Demonstrating that home accents follow fashion, the bright geometric pattern of Company C's Mola pillow found its inspiration in a circa 1965 blouse panel from Panama ($72).
