Design in Colombia
December 18, 2014
I found out recently that Colombia is the #1 textile exporter in the world. When I traveled to Paris in 2011, styles I saw there would be big in the US about three months after the fact. This was also true in Colombia. While French style was simple, stark, and gothic, Colombian style was exploding with color and shape. I sincerely enjoyed it. I did get the chance to see a lot of architecture and art, which was also really inspiring. The experience was eye-opening and will certainly affect my design. I haven’t traveled a lot yet in my life but I hope to travel a lot more and get more design inspiration from people and cultures outside of myself.
