How to make silence and contemplation attractive a

How to make silence and contemplation attractive and desirable?

A rising Monastic Mood is defined by designing and curating a space of stillness as a way of creating a sanctuary of silence.

In our upcoming trend report The New Care Economy we will see examples of Contemplation Design and Monastic Mood as a way to reconnect and find time to empty our mind.

“In 2019, I decided to dedicate myself fully to the study of the architecture of silence, visiting sacred places and inspiring architecture to understand the conditions of silence.”

Cedric Etienne, co-founder of @Studio Corkinho (Antwerp-based) started a pilgrimage that took him to monasteries and cloisters in Belgium, the Netherlands, France, Portugal, Spain, Italy, and Japan to study silent meditation in Buddhist monasteries.

We are a huge fan of Faye Toogood and her approach

We are a huge fan of Faye Toogood and her approach to volume. As a multidisciplinary designer, one of her greatest skills is to integrate a design vision across different typologies and still be recognized.

She has teamed up with Birkenstock 1774 to enter the luxury fashion market. Cork, quilted leather, and canvas are the three materials she picked as her signature for a sandal collection.

Take care of your client.
But don’t go into Wellness Washing.

According to a market study by Ogilvy, 73% of consumers (post no.2) expect brands to embrace wellness as part of their core mission.

However, wellness marketing alone does not do the trick (post no.3). Standard sentences such as ‘it will boost your confidence’ lower credibility.

Only 41% of consumers (post no.4) think wellness claims from brands are believable.

We believe that is some food for thought which we see more in detail in the upcoming trend report The New Care Economy (sing up to be notified via the link in the bio).

Arca House

During the research for specific projects for one of our upcoming trend reports, ESSENTIALITY (swipe left), we found the Arca Home, named by the locals as it came as a ship in the middle of the Brazilian Atlantic Forest.

The structure mimics a specific Brazilian indigenous house typology (Asurini, Médio Xingu) that stands alone with minimal impact on the surrounding.

Please read on Eclectic Trends how big the home is, who, according to the architect @markobrajovic, commissioned that home (it actually is the best bit of the story), and how long it took to be assembled. It's a beautiful story.

Onion Skin

We love a great material research project that looks beautiful.

Parson Textile MFA Exhibition HYBRID includes this year the work of @luo_liuxu.

She started using embroidery and laser cutting techniques to develop drawing methods, creating new yarns and developing them into knitting and woven works.

Luo developed a set of onion-skin dyed garments, creating pleats and applying ornaments like laser-cut pieces representing onion cells.

Porcelain labyrinths

For a recent collaboration, British ceramic artist @alicewaltonceramics contributed with her hypnotizing porcelain labyrinths.

According to gallerists @tingyingstudio, despite featuring intensely textured surfaces and complex colors, Walton’s work is also recognized for its meditative qualities.
This tension between the repetitive and experimental, the calm and the kinetic, makes her objects so compelling.

Nordic Summer - Color Mood

Biomaterials made from waste (REOLIVAR, an olive pit waste product).

The eye as a symbol of protection.

A dental clinic concept aimed at a young audience.

Together, their textures and color taste like Nordic summer.

-TAINMENT

It's all about -tainment in 2021, combining a specific activity with entertainment to bring us more cheer, distraction, and fun.
 
1. EDUTAINMENT
is not new. Disney coined the term in the '50s bringing education and entertainment to Disneyland. It's ingrained in our culture today and used in several ways.
 
2.LUXTAINMENT
comes with luxury retail brands combining entertainment with performances, panel discussions, takeovers, or competitions to leverage attention.
 
3. FITAINMENT
can combine fitness, recipes, and reflectional quotes, as seen on @ffitcoco.
 
4. The entertaining platform Netflix teamed up with Headspace to launch a series on meditation, and here we have CALMTAINMENT.
 
5. FAMTAINMENT, the Fullmer family is an excellent example by bringing family entertainment on Tuesday; check out their account @fullmhouse.

What’s your type of -tainment?
