While reviewing and researching palettes, I recently came across Ingeborg Panjer Roombeek‘s paintings. Roombeek’s a master with color, space, and geometric balance. This series, dating back to 2010, emulates the beauty of flat design – a digital trend that’s evolved out of skeumorphism over the past year. It’s interesting to see it from the angle of the art world, as opposed to the design world, as this ‘less is more, 2D meets 3D’ layout has gained serious momentum thanks to creative overhauls from Microsoft and the tech startup world. What do you think of the connection? Would you say Roombeek’s work contributed to this creative trend?
