Category: Mood boards

Cocora Valley Colombia is famous for hosting the tallest palm trees in the world. However, their enormous size wasn’t the only thing that surprised us. The abundance of colors and textures looks calming and relaxing, providing enough inspiration for our work. Therefore, our designers came up with a new mood board for commercial spaces. The carefully curated combination is reminiscent of the whimsical valley with gigantic wax palms. The mood board features a select mix of green tones and natural textures, recalling the beauty of Cocora Valley. Our grass carpet provides an ideal base for connecting the elements while fitting the overall aesthetic. The result is a harmonious combination of colors, textures, and patterns that brings serenity to the space.

After a long hike through the forest, nature will reward you with a magnificent sight. The thin trunks stretch to the sky, topped with a cluster of dark green palm leaves. Lying deep among the lush greenery in the Los Nevados National Natural Park, the waxy giants enjoy protection from the government to fight overharvesting and loss of habitat. With a height that can reach 200 ft, the wax palm is proudly named Colombia’s national tree.

Our tropical mood board starts with a grass carpet. Grass Field by ege resembles the texture of lush grass, as seen in the Cocora Valley. The fresh color and distinctive texture are the perfect base for layering the additional elements. Reform Legend Tile by ege carpets will perfectly complement the grass carpet with its organic texture that resembles the slim tree trunk.

Wedge by Jamie Beckwith Collection is the perfect choice for vertical decorative applications. The exceptional texture will create a focal point that fits the natural vibe of the mood board. Alto by Fil Doux Textiles is a mustard yellow fabric with a gorgeous texture. The fresh color and organic aesthetic will ideally complement the space in the form of upholstered furniture.

The wax palm trees have a unique appearance that grabbed our attention. The bushy palm leaves on top of the slim and tall trunk are a signature aesthetic for the Cocora Valley. Betty Palms by Mitchell Black Wallpaper and Textiles is the perfect reminiscent of the tropical leaves. The impressive wallpaper features a repetitive print that adds a touch of visual interest but remains calm and neutral.

The tropical mood board brings serene vibes and tranquility to the space. The grass carpet anchors the elements while introducing a subtle dose of texture. The carefully curated mix of organic textures complements the natural color scheme, resulting in a calm mood board for commercial spaces.

Schedule an introduction with us

Sitting right next to Pompidou in Paris is Atelier Brancusi. This place is a reconstruction of the studio of renowned Romanian-born artist Constantin Brancusi. In the atelier, there are 137 sculptures, 87 bases, 41 drawings, two paintings, and more than 1600 grass photographic plates and prints by the artist.

Brancusi died in 1957, leaving behind a lot of his work in his studio, which consisted of 11 joined studios. The Romanian artist would break down walls to adjoin studios and create various environments to exhibit his work. He considered the relationship between sculptures and the space they occupied to be of crucial importance.

In 1997, the Atelier Brancusi as we know it today opened its doors on the esplanade of the Center Pompidou. So much of Brancusi’s work is on display at the atelier, giving you an idea of how much the artist put into the world. There are wood and plaster sculptures, bronze colonnades, animal shapes, and photographic studies. It is a beautiful and inspiring place to visit.

Inspired by the stone and natural textures of Brancusi’s work, we recolored the Stone Surface carpet. This is part of the nature collection by ege carpets, which takes inspiration from forests, deserts, and oceans. This light recolor of the carpet allows you to bring a textured palette to your next interior design project.

We created a material board that focuses on a textured palette with the atelier colors and the recolored carpet in mind. We included dark woods like Texas Mesquite 83000 and Artisanal Hardwoods. Keeping the dark brown theme, we also included different textured textiles like Artisan Textured Finishes by CopperSmith, Basketcase by Cortina Leathers, Lafayette Velvet by Opuzen, and Chesney by Valley Forge Fabrics. Additionally, we decided to bring some lighter tones of cream and white by adding Cove, True Terrazzo, Concrete Look Porcelain Paver, and Passion. To tie in the soft colors with the dark ones, we included mid-toned neutral paints like Crewel Tan by Sherwin-Williams and Mesa Tan by Dunn-Edwards Paints.
