The creative minds behind the trends were the Stijlinstituut Amsterdam, London studio Franklin Till and Danish agency SPOTT Trends & Business. At a joint workshop, the trend researchers drew up a global market forecast for the interior design sector focusing on emerging lifestyle, material, colour and design trends.

The omnipresent theme of this year’s trend forecast is identity, through which the researchers tackle gender and cultural diversity, tolerance and curiosity. They describe the process of self-discovery today as apparently more complex than ever. Identities develop through experiences that occur at a number of different levels: local, national and global, and both online and offline. “Identity is diverse,” as they say.
