Thibaut Presents a Harmonious Blend of Worldly Motifs with The Shangri-La Collection
May 2010
Fusing decorative elements from cultures worldwide, the Shangri-La Collection is a worldly assortment of sight and texture. Reflecting notes of paradise and harmony infused with graceful beauty, Shangri-La provides a profound sense of peacefulness. The liberal use of bold, contrasting colors in clean, organic designs are present throughout the entire collection, comprised of thoughtfully selected atural linens, textured wallcoverings, and rugged cottons. Mystical in its appearance, the Shangri-La Collection translates worldly motifs into modern accents and encourages designers to transition between rooms and themes with masculine, feminine and ultimately elegant touches.
