Design for All Trend and Colour Forecast

Description

An internally researched forecast that envisions a future shaped by inclusivity and purpose.

Design for All is an internally researched trend and colour forecast. It is intended as a resource and a tool to help inspire the minds that will shape our future. It is a deep look at ourselves, our community and our earth, as we consider how the spaces we create affect the choices that we make.

As the way we experience the world evolves, so does our understanding that physical and social health are deeply intertwined. The ways we connect with others, engage with technology, and care for the

planet all influence our collective well-being.

This latest forecast asks “What would it look like to design for belonging, people and planet health?”. Rather than solving our differences, how might we design to bridge our shared needs and create common ground?

It looks at global trends across three themes, Wellbeing, Connection and Thriving, and forecasts how design is already adapting in response, and how it needs to continue to evolve to support these changes for a more connected, regenerative and joyful future.

The forecast sets the scene for each theme and then shares examples of brands, products and individuals that are responding to the opportunity and challenge. It then demonstrates how this is influencing the design of spaces. Finally, it showcases what the colour palette looks like for each theme.
