Slip into your favourite pair of Flares and embrace the nostalgia! Join us on this little voyage into the living spaces of the past, where fashion and architecture dance together in perfect harmony.
Picture yourself in a sun-soaked mid-century modern living room, adorned with vibrant hues and geometric patterns, mirroring the bold style that defined this iconic time. In the realm of 60’s and '70s architecture, the sunken living room emerged as a chic and innovative design.
Our appreciation for this aesthetic marvel goes beyond how epic it looks—it embodies a lifestyle. The sunken couches, nestled cozily into conversation pits, invite relaxation and communal gatherings. Nothing sounds better, if you ask us!
One influence for the conversation pit design, was the Japanese tradition of “engawa”, where a sunken in space allowed for intimate gatherings and discussions.
Architects like Bruce Goff and Eero Saarinen contributed to the trend with their experimental designs that included sunken in areas of the home to create a unique visual element while embracing a sense of connectivity.
Earthy tones, avocado greens, and burnt oranges took center stage, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.
If you’ve seen our Flares, you know that we draw lots of inspiration from these rich palettes, incorporating them into our collections in any way we can. Whether it's a bold chevron or a playful houndstooth, we celebrate the era's commitment to pushing design boundaries, something we strive for in every stitch and detail of our Flares.
Envision a seamless connection between nature, stunning fashion and the chic living spaces. From shag carpets and velvet couches to sequined jump suits and bell bottoms, sounds like our kind of hang out!
