Welcome to the MOD Dreamscape. Exclusively on the MOD Blog we showcase a variating series of captivating digital art created to inspire the senses.
Purple has a storied history in the Middle East, originating in the ancient Phoenician city of Tyre, where dye was extracted from the rare murex sea snail. Middle Eastern traders spread it across the Mediterranean, where it adorned the robes of emperors and royalty, becoming a symbol of power and opulence.
Unlike the intense Tyrian purple, lilac's delicate hue suggested subtlety and refinement creating a plethora of uses across art, interiors, fashion, textiles and more. Most recently lilac has continued to captivate across the globe both on international runway shows by designers such as Georges Hobeika and Elie Saab and royals such as Queen Rania of Jordan.
Design with purpose will always stand above the rest.
