FCI2015_1

We’ve published a new downloadable report that explores the key shifts in householder behaviour and paints a picture of life at home today, and what we can expect to happen next.

Find out what we predict will be shaping consumer attitudes, tastes and behaviours for 2015 in this report which clusters our findings into clear and comprehensive Macro Themes.

“We built and developed these Macro Themes from our initial Trend Panel which was back in 2013,” explained Trend Bible founder Joanna Feeley. “Our specially selected group of panelists are inspiring thinkers and influential practitioners and are able to share their research and opinion in specialist home and interior markets. We layer this knowledge into a broader set of research and then apply our own unique forecasting methodologies to predict what the most important trends will be.”

Our Consumer Lifestyle and Home Environment 2015 provides a digestible overview of the 4 key Macro Themes impacting in 2015. It provides unique case studies evidencing emerging trends and analyses how receptive different market levels will be in adopting the trends. Furthermore, it details a direct application to key business disciplines, such as marketing or product design, providing our clients with our expert advice on how to respond to these trends.

This report provides crucial foresight to global brands. It allows a variety of industry disciplines including marketeers, strategists, buyers and designers to gain an clear understanding of the changing landscape within the broader home and interiors market; enabling them to respond in advance to the changes that are set to influence their businesses.

Nature Prescription

Trend Bible Nature Prescription SS14_1

As we revolve our lives more around the city and remove ourselves from nature, this trend is about creating a place for healing, and repairing, allowing us to pursue peace and silence and glean energy from the natural environment. The home becomes a reflection of our desire to be closer to nature, so natural materials are introduced in their raw state, often encased, protected and suspended in glass or acrylic, so that we can appreciate its beauty whilst the object maintains maximum usability and functionality.

This trend is the antidote to quick-fix culture, it replenishes and embraces the slow burn, mindfulness and honesty of bare, raw materials. The weathering process is cherished. Texture replaces print where quality of life, replenishment, and space for thought and contemplation balance out a digital existence. Continue reading →

Retail Report: Transatlantic Festive Trend Report

Posted on December 18, 2013 by Trend Bible

Transatlantic Festive Trend Report1

The Trend Bible team have been busy compiling our transatlantic festive trend report over the past couple of weeks. This report reflects a snapshot of what can be found in-store for Christmas 2013 across London and New York. We have compiled this report by looking across a broad spectrum of homeware and lifestyle products in particular stationery, giftware, festive decoration and tableware from key UK and US stores such as Heals, Conran, John Lewis, Selfridges, Liberty,West Elm, Anthropologie, CB2, Crate & Barrel, Papyrus and Paper Source.

“We found your Transatlantic Festive report massively useful and insightful for our AW14 development!

It was great to see trends and categories grouped together, which backed up our own interpretation and understanding of what was happening in the market place. As we get increasingly busier, we are less able to get out and about, especially over the pond, so such a report is really valuable for us to see individual products (and realise where they have come from!) as well as compare links between retailers and the ranges they have developed.”
