Back to brown is about returning back to the basics. For me brown feels like a very grounding earthing colour that takes us back to our roots, where we come from, what makes us feel safe and held.

Back to brown is about stripping it all back, all the colours, patterns, textures, layers and giving it back to the earth and starting again. It feels like a fresh slate, there are still tones and textures there because there will always be but there is more space to think. To feel safe and held in giving yourself time to ground and return to a space where you feel connected to yourself.

The pockets of gold remind me of clearing the foggy muck and coming to clarity. That unlimited earthy pure source that is within us, its stripping everything back to that space where we feel ourselves through a real connection to where we come from.
