On 8 August 2012, creative minds will gather at the Freeworld Auditorium in Cape Town for the third Trend Talk session of the year and the official Cape Town launch of the Plascon 2013 Colour Forecast.
Trend Talk (www.plascontrends.co.za/trend-talk) is an exciting industry event, at which key presenters reveal the latest design and décor trends and share visuals, provocative ideas and thoughts on the lifestyle shifts that will touch us all in 2012 and beyond.
Here’s what to expect from Trend Talk 3:
