Surfaces with texture, warmth and structure celebrate a need for visual enjoyment and calm, sensuous experiences that tease the eye. Design must contain delicate elements and an eye-popping surface or shape enhancing a sculptural form and surprising texture by using light, shadow and surfaces.

An increasing interest in biohacking and understanding nature in new ways creates an innovative range of well-considered materials and clever design that meet the need for self-optimisation and self-care. Use biohacking and creative material experiments to create newness with unique details that pay tribute to nature’s way while making wiser decisions in the product lifecycle.

Materials, surfaces and expressions are marked by time or processing. A visual past with an adapted surface such as burnt, stained, brushed or broken showcase a love for sensory effects and sublime experiences of something harsh and raw – both visually and tactilely. Cultivate the idea that materials and design need to be ready for battle.

Over-the-top shapes and excessive details express an optimistic and hopeful mindset with a need for spreading joy through festive, fun and enthusiastic design. Colours, shapes, materials and compositions in a great mix testify to a cheerful mind with a complexion of something abstract and artistic – without compromising on function and comfort.
