Season Themes | Lifestyle Trends, Home: Experience is overriding consumption, so to encourage spending, brands need to think of ways to harness and promote an experience worth having that goes beyond just buying a product. It's a time for products that evoke romantic notions of bygone eras, but that function with tomorrow's technology. . . Four trends for the Spring Summer 2011 season, from Trend Bible, a new generation trend forecasting agency specialising in home interior, kid's lifestyle and packaging trends.

There is a sense that this is the time for practical, useful, time-saving products, but it's also a time for products that have been made with love, by hand. It's a time for products that evoke romantic notions of bygone eras, but that function with tomorrow's technology. Our four trend directions really reflect this new mood; we see nostalgia in Voyager; a sense of optimism in Libertine; treasured possessions in Collector and unique, crafted goods in Epicurean.
