In the world of design, sometimes What's Old Is New! The resurgence of the bobbin motif is one such thing. Recently we have noticed them finding their way into furniture, dinnerware, decor and mouldings. The Baccarat hotel in NYC, a bastion of contemporary design, used bobbin trim and mouldings liberally throughout the rooms and public spaces, in their recent renovation. Traditionally used in woodworking, bobbin designs are now being given a modern twist, showcasing their versatility in contemporary settings.
The bobbin design can be traced back to the late 19th century, chiefly appearing in furniture and woodworking. The bobbin motif allows for a fusion of vintage charm and modern flair. For instance, using bobbin accents in a minimalist design can provide a cozy atmosphere without sacrificing sophistication.
We welcome design influences from the past while also embracing modern aesthetics. The resurgence of the bobbin offers a great way to create spaces that tell a story. This motif bridges historical craftsmanship and contemporary style, enhancing the warmth and expressions of personal style, what's not to love about that?!
