MARTIN & MARTIN »HENRIETTE«

M A RTIN & M A RTIN PA S T E L C O L L E C T I O N Ever so quiet, like a thief in the night, a subtle trend has stolen the hearts of designers around the world in a big way: Dreamy pastel colors are popping up everywhere, and for a good reason. Make no mistake: This is not yesterday’s garish Barbie pink or the gruesome mixture of erica and violet hues. This year’s pastels include the perfect blend of mint green and strawberry ice cream colors found in trending chair, side table and lamp collections. At the beginning of the year, furniture and interior design fair IMM Cologne led the way with sorbet colors in all shades, often combined with natural, untreated wood textures. IMM Cologne was also the place where designer Martin Lehmann of Martin & Martin caught the pastel bug. His new eyewear collection features beautiful milky color shades and opal hues. Hand-made at traditional German workshops from Italian cotton acetate pressed into multilayered blocks of raw material – following the same process for more than ten years now – the frames offer comfortable surface feel, great fit and spring loaded hinges. Introducing: This season’s pastel heartbreakers, models “Henriette” and “Ulla”.
