The Kronospan Trends - Origin Stories

The Nomad

Weathered timbers and natural fabric textures are the basis of the Nomad look.

Born travellers, the Nomad picks up on influences as they go. Their homes bear witness to this, featuring objects made from an unusual hand-woven cloth, or sculptural driftwood pieces that tell a story of their lives on the move. They favour textures and patterns drawn from nature with a minimal amount of finishing. The Nomads are attracted to the weathered oak finishes and the crossweave textile effects that remind them of authentic artisan creations.

The Adaptable

Skilful combinations are key to the Adaptable way of mixing work and play.

Cheerfully taking the path of the least resistance, the Adaptable can make the very best of any opportunity. When Plan A doesn’t work, they always have a contingency plan in place, so embracing working from home by creating multi-functional spaces that seamlessly include an office space without impacting domestic comforts, is quickly adopted. Muted warm tones, natural materials like wood, textile, and stone, and a soft, hazy ambiance ensure flexible and balanced spaces where they can work, play and relax.

The Passionate

Impressively realistic décors for a space to treasure in the Passionate design book.

Successful, stylish, and confident enough to speak loud about their lifestyle, attitude, and tastes. The Passionate know what they want and have an abundance of energy they bring to their private and work spaces... Driven by emotions, their style might be extreme, rich, and opulent or severe minimalistic, but the focus of the mind and attention to detail will be striking. The creativity helps them kindle the energy required to stay passionate and motivated. This can be seen in the choice of impressively realistic woodgrains mixed with intense colours and powerful, statement stone and metal finishes.

RICH • OPULENT • CURATED • SINGLE-MINDED • MASCULINE

The Optimist

A bright, colourful, design-forward style for daring Optimists.

These are the world’s early adopters, open-minded persons that want the latest version, the newest technology. They are comfortable being at the front of a trend, interested in experimenting, and always delighted to find something they haven’t seen before. Cheerful, positive, offbeat décors take pride in the places they inhabit. Our reimagining of stone surfaces with concrete-like effects interests them, as do the pure and elegant woodgrains, gleaming metallics, and coral-inspired colours.
