Increasing awareness of environmental catastrophe and the urgency to prevent it is inspiring designers to rethink the lifecycle of products. The concept of Sustainability is currently undergoing a reflection in our society as more eco-conscious consumers are awakened to the necessity of creating ethical solutions for objects of daily use and cut excess. Brands are playing a decisive role in this change by using their resources and influence to find innovative ways to create products that are as desirable and functional as they are eco-friendly.
Rather than simply recycling materials, companies are looking at how they can be more ‘Circular’. Circular design deals with the reuse and repurposing of material to bring it new life and new meaning. A successful circular design cycle works to leave no waste throughout the process of creation and use.

Brands are aware that consumers are increasingly valuing experiences rather than objects and changing their spending habits accordingly. To gain customers attention back into stores, they’re adapting to offer 360-degree shoppable brand experiences. Believing a relaxed customer is more likely to make a purchase, retailers are on a continual quest to make customers feel at home in their stores. Brands want customers to discover a different way of shopping, aiming to create an environment which is as close as possible to their homes.

Plants are certainly not a new interior design trend, but they are becoming more of a feature than ever before, as people realize the health benefits they offer.

Businesses at the vanguard of workplace design such as Apple, Google and Amazon are investing heavily in Biophilic Design elements. These principles are shown to improve worker concentration, engagement and cognitive ability.
