Young consumers increasingly value uniqueness and sustainability over brand names. Second-hand marketplaces and clothing rental services are also seeing record growth.

Interior Design Trends

Biophilic design — incorporating natural elements into living spaces — is surging. Houseplants, natural material furniture, and earth-toned color palettes create calming home environments. The “minimal but warm” Scandinavian aesthetic continues to dominate, balancing clean lines with cozy textures.

Lifestyle Shifts

遠端工作 has normalized “workations” and dual-life arrangements (city weekdays, countryside weekends). Subscription-based access to goods and services is replacing ownership, especially among younger generations. These shifts are reshaping consumer behavior and housing preferences.
