This is a home trend presentation I created to demonstrate how the Tudor Romance trend in fashion can be translated to home decor design. Through use of textured fabrics such as brocades, jacquards, velvets, and leather, and a rich, deep color palette, a decadent, extravagant feeling is conveyed.

A Chivalrous LifeA home trend presentation

By Kristy Janigo

I originally designed a clothing line called “A Chivalrous Night,” inspired by the Tudors and their reign in England. The “Tudor Romance” trend is important today, evidenced by the popularity of the cable television show “The Tudors” and Alexandar McQueen’s last collection.

The trend lends itself to home design as well. Three types of materials are used to convey the theme: brocades,metals or metallic fabric, and tactile, surface designed fabric such as velvet and quilting. Dark espresso and cherry wood finishes remind us of the opulence of the royal family.

As the economy recovers, customers are looking for items that feel luxurious but are still affordable. “A Chivalrous Life”aims to highlight how to answer the demand. I have prepared the following report, illustrating how the trend can be referenced as a design direction in both holiday and home decor, whether in the living room or bedroom, during the Christmas season, or year round.

And now the adventure begins...

Trend Overview

Above: Images from The Tudors , a television show that aired in the U.S., Canada, and the United Kingdom, from April 2007 to June 2010. The series was based loosely on the reign of English monarch Henry VII. The costumes and set designs captured the opulence, drama, and extravegance of the royal family.

Below: Images from Alexander McQueen’s Autumn/Winter 2010 line, inspired by Byzantine art. The design elements reflect luxury, decadance, and wealth. McQueen developed the collection, which was unveiled in a series of private viewings in Paris, in the weeks leading up to his death in February, 2010.
