More often than not, designers feel the need to create a grand overall theme for their collections to keep them exciting, but what if the theme was the opposite of exciting? A collection of [mundane things](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/routines-collection)? Design label Vane decided to try just that with their [line of jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nadine-ghosn-crayola-pack) called The Beautiful Mundane.

With camera and [pencils as a design element](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/experimental-pencils), The Beautiful Mundane finds the beauty in regular objects. A surprising (and refreshing) spin from a designer. Take a look at Vanes collection, and find some love for the mundane.
