Let's Talk Trends: Checks and Grids

80s/90s era design and decor continues its rise on the trend curve. Seems like everyone is DIY-ing that viral tile table! Simple, yet impactful black and white checks bring back old memories of dusty, outdoor grunge alternative music festivals where classic, slip-on, check-patterned Vans was the footwear du jour. But this modern iteration of grids and checkerboard patterns is a lot less Pearl Jam and little more Tame Impala with a bright and colorful update in the trending #electricpastels palette.
