NATURAL
Two key cultural shifts converge to define a new era of children’s goods. As parents opt for the pared back subtly of minimalism and honest earthiness of naturalism, a more sophisticated approach to kids’ feeding, playing and learning emerges.

12 months of feeding, attire and accessory product analysis reveals emergent colors reflect the socio-cultural trends. Hues shift toward quiet pastels and natural neutrals with the occasional pop of vibrancy.
CONTEXT
Home styles of warm minimalism, outside in and more migrate into nurseries, reinforcing the sophistication of children’s hues with youthful accents.
