Are you curious to know what do the new trends for the 2011 look like? Have some brief impression from what I have found:
According to Heimtextil Trend there will be four trend topics: 

Sobriety – a return to the essential and traditional

- short-lived, seasonal trends end and consistent value begins; the new consumer landscape is characterised by quality, longevity, sustainability and significance. Designers are researching forgotten skills and traditional craftsmanship is making a comeback;

- Serenity, Classic Modernity and Minimal Luxury trends are also part of this topic.

Mix Mash combines the high-tech with craftsmanship, new with old

UTILITY - For Utility Lux designers have taken their inspiration from standardizsed industry and commercial fitments to create a refined look.Function is first.

And now - Color of the Year for 2011: PANTONE 18-2120 Honeysuckle
A dynamic reddish pink, Honeysuckle is encouraging and uplifting. It elevates our psyche beyond escape, instilling the confidence, courage and spirit to meet the exhaustive challenges that have become part of everyday life.I like it! And expect that it will be more popular than this year's turquoise.
