3 Ways to Innovate & Stay Creative After 30 Years In Business

For interior and product design veteran Tammy Price, owner of Fragments Identity, "pillows are like art. They can transform a space, they can make a plain sofa come to life, they can change the texture of a chair."  But when you've been in the interior design game for 30 years, and the work is a reflection of things you love, how do you continue to innovate and stay ahead of game? 

We asked Tammy the three ways Fragments continues to maintain its unique look and stand out in a saturated design market. 

DON'T FOCUS ON TRENDS, ANCHOR THE BRAND TO YOU

Even after 30 years in the design business, we still use a tone on tone and neutral palette as the anchor to all of Fragments Identity brand products. Rather than focusing on short-lived trends, we keep it true to ourselves and our own aesthetic. We then, will go in an implement or edit our collections in very specific ways that fit with the market of the particular time. Rather than chasing the newest trends, we stay true to the timeless, classic, monochromatic vibe that is Fragments Identity.

DON'T SKIMP ON QUALITY 

Quality and product fabrication of the highest level is just as important to our brand as the design is. In order to stand out in a saturated market, we are committed to providing impeccable goods of the highest quality. Not only do we design in house, but we also control and oversee all manufacturing from the beginning selection process of the textiles and furniture frames to the last tissue paper fold in the customer's packed order. 

THERE NEEDS TO BE HEART AT THE CORE OF THE BRAND

Fragments Identity is not commercially driven, but rather comes from a deep place of passion for design. To us, this passion never stops, and design flows 24/7. That's what we believe, truly sets us apart, and reflects in every aspect of the Fragments Identity brand.
