Nature Infusions

Bringing the Outdoors Indoors

Implications - The time we spend indoors working in artificial surroundings has inspired a bevy of structures inspired by nature. Whether they're meant to sit indoors as a reminder of the mystery of the world that lies outside our window or to integrate seamlessly with our home decor, bringing the outdoors in has never been hotter.
Trend Themes
1. Nature-inspired Design - Corporations may capitalize on this emerging pattern by crafting products with nature-based design elements to counteract the technological aesthetics that currently overrun the marketplace.
2. Organic Architecture - The featured apartment building was designed to eke out the max­imum square footage possible on the 8,288-square-foot site while preserving existing natural surroundings.
3. Sustainable Energy - Perhaps the solution is to combine both solar power and wind power, in order to maximize the benefits of both.
Industry Implications
1. Furniture Manufacturing - Products that enable customers to experience a sense of reconnection with nature, with ecology-inspired designs
2. Home Decor - Innovative designs that evoke nature and bring it into the home.
3. Environmental Engineering - Developing environmental products and engineering sustainability-focused building structures
