Dumas is the founder of the design company Flowers in May, and this series tastefully illustrates diverse themes with a specific color palette. Dumas chose several subjects like a boutique, a kitchen, a laundry and a bakery and brainstormed all the elements that characterized each theme. Then, she distinguished them by using different hues. For example, the boutique is all about a certain tonality of blues, yellows and greens, the music store is filled with reds, browns and dark yellows. The illustrations themselves are well-done and extremely detailed, making these prints a collector's item. The posters by Emily Dumas measure 11 x 14-inches and were printed on [high-quality archival paper](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/makeposter). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.7/10 - Popularity: 11% | Activity: 1% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Adorable Posters:** Creating cute and eye-catching posters that appeal to a wide audience. - **Colorful Design:** Incorporating specific color palettes in design to evoke different themes and moods. - **Detailed Illustrations:** Using intricate and well-done illustrations to create high-quality collector's prints. ### Where This Applies - **Graphic Design:** Exploring new ways to create visually appealing and engaging designs for various purposes. - **Home Decor:** Integrating colorful and charming prints into home decor to add personality and style. - **Artistic Prints:** Producing detailed and unique prints that cater to art collectors and enthusiasts. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Artist-Approved Intricate Wallpaper Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/printed-decors.md) - [Heritage-Honoring Artful Posters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/archival-poster-collection.md) - [Vibrantly Designed Furniture Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dusen-dusen-2.md) - [Limited Humorous Art Prints](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/david-shrigley-1.md) - [Large Poster-Like Displays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/inkposter-duna.md) - [Paper-Formed Premium Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pastille.md) - [Retro Japanese-Inspired Cafe Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/postcard-bakery.md) - [Renter-Friendly Wallpaper Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/renter-friendly-wallpaper.md) - [Hand-Painted Print Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/print-collection.md)
