A Ying sort of Yang.

...Waking up in Asia

Every so often, the window display in the shop gets a makeover. Its a great way to use your creativity as well as advertise the latest fabrics and well matched design schemes.

Ciara had the idea of creating an Asian display. Following her vision, we set out to chose the appropriate fabrics and finishes. She had some lovely ideas to start with which made the fabric choices quite easy.
The great thing about the window display is it allows me to observe the likes of Ciara and learn from her ideas and give me a good knowledge base on styles and trends.

We were torn between a set of golds and reds versus blues and greens. We decided to display them both, hence the birth of the Ying and Yang effect. Half the window will be a warm representation of the Asian colours, and the other half will be the cooler and fresher colours.




Using different props in the store (such as my table- delightful), we started to piece together a display from hanging lights to angled façades.




After all the pushing and pulling, the end result was well worth the effort. Even though the windows are split into 2 colour schemes, they are both complimentary. Bringing some Asia to Ireland.
