Product trends | Inclusive design movement
It's safe to say that the focus on inclusive design within home and living sectors is going to be more apparent and pronounced this year. This trend transcends mere aesthetic appeal, evolving environments to cater comprehensively to all individuals, regardless of age, ability, or status. It embodies the "design for all" ethos, which is now becoming a fundamental principle of modern architecture and design.
Inclusive design is more than a compassionate approach; it is a strategic move towards expanding market awareness and enhancing functionality. As demographic shifts and awareness of accessibility needs increase, there is a rising demand for products that accommodate a broader range of human experiences. This is not merely a trend but a movement towards a more equitable society.
As we look towards the future, it is clear that inclusive design will set the benchmark for innovation within the design industries. We have pioneered this integration of inclusivity into our products, from multifunctional furniture that adapts to various body sizes and abilities, to décor that is as functional as it is aesthetically pleasing.
The momentum towards inclusivity is driven by both ethical considerations and economic benefits, reshaping the design landscape on a global scale. When more designers will embrace this approach, we anticipate a surge in products that not only meet accessibility standards but also enhance the quality of life, proving that good design truly is inclusive design.
By 2025, inclusive design should become as obvious presence in homes globally, reflecting a societal advancement towards inclusivity at every level.
