Retro-Modern Roundup: Bold Geometry

May 18, 2016 by Kate Leave a Comment

Welcome to another edition of Retro-Modern Roundup, a series that celebrates the best of the past and the present, with an emphasis on ’70s, ’80s and ’90s motifs (and how they are re-emerging). Art, design, entertainment news, and links to shops that sell retro-style items are a few of the tidbits you’ll find here. Let’s get started with the 3D illustrations of Anny Wang, which always blow my mind. Above is one of my very favorites from the Liquid Series. Ready for more?…

Art & Design

These Altars to the Unknown by Eric Trine are filled with interesting patterns and geometric goodness:

Ladies & Gentlemen Studio’s Point-Counterpoint Mobiles are fabulous in their geo minimalism:

I’m a long-time fan of Brian Halsey. Now there’s a new site for the artist where you can find a plethora of information and purchase his stunning pieces, such as Macron from 1983:

So. Much. Geometry. The world of modern ceramics is getting exciting. Here are some Angle Handle Mugs from Lindsey Hampton:

News and Other Tidbits

Palm party decor

Anyone else devouring every update and article on the upcoming Blade Runner 2 film?

I recently collaborated with my good friend Jon of Happy Mundane to create a Palm Party (filled with ’80s-style DIY projects like the vase above).

This list of ’80s junk foods will bring back memories for many of you…

I started an ’80s Design Group on Facebook. And the discussions, photos and design facts shared have been a-mazing. Join us!

Hope everyone is having a great week! XOXO, Kate
