2025 Trend Installations

For the annual lobby installations at the Tropical Plant International Expo, we created two immersive vignettes highlighting the two largest design trends for the year, Super Soft and Nature’s Regeneration. The space featured open areas designed to highlight new products inspired by the trends as well integrating photo moments and public rest areas.

TREND #1: SUPER SOFT

Super Soft extends a sense of grounded calm and peace to a space through soft, rounded forms and comforting textures. A response to a fast-paced world, this trend focuses on slowing individuals down in their day to day to rest and recharge through tactile materials and thoughtful design.

TREND #2: NATURE’S REGENERATION

Nature’s Regeneration highlights sustainability and the restorative power of nature, focusing on materials and rituals that promote healing through environmental design. Reimagining manmade forms and spaces through an organic lens brings a familiar newness to the everyday, while individual craftsmanship and natural imperfections make each interaction unique.
