Design Trends
Forecasting the future
Our design team has a natural curiosity. As creators we are constantly exploring what is next. Whether digitally through trend platforms or physically at shows, exhibitions and conferences, our team continuously absorb the latest thoughts and outputs from different creative fields. We are looking for both inspiration and information, exploring emerging trends in colour, material, form and meaning, which we synthesise with, category, cultural, social and technological trends.
