MC&Co Trend Has Rebuilt Forecasting. This Changes Everything

MC&Co Trend Has Rebuilt Forecasting. This Changes Everything

Smarter. Visual. AI-Powered. Commercial by Design.

Trend forecasting hasn’t just evolved—it’s been rebuilt.

At MC&Co Trend, we’ve redefined what forecasting should do for design-led businesses: deliver clarity fast, remove guesswork, and drive results.

This isn’t an update.

It’s a game-changer.

In 2025, design teams face sharper pressure—tighter cycles, higher expectations, and less room for error. The old model of inspiration and intuition no longer holds.

You don’t need noise.

You need clarity, structure, and strategy—ready to plug into real-world decision-making.

Why We Rebuilt Trend Forecasting

Traditional forecasts have lacked structure. Pretty pictures. Vague moods. No direct path to product or profit.

So we asked:
What if forecasting saved you time?
What if trend direction came with strategic framing—built for your category?
What if every forecast aligned emotion, design, and commercial timing?

That’s what we’ve built.

Introducing the MC&Co Trend Intelligence System

Our proprietary Trend Intelligence System is at the core of this launch—a framework 30+ years in the making.

It turns early signals into strategy, built around three commercial pillars:

  • Emotional & lifestyle relevance
  • Sector-specific application
  • Precise commercial timing

It’s the difference between following trends and leading with them.

AI-Powered Forecasts, Human-Led Insight

The visuals in this launch are powered by AI and drawn from our Modern Nature forecast—one of several examples in our new series.

But the value isn’t the tech.
It’s the thinking.
10% is the AI.
90% is our design intelligence.

Each forecast is structured to move quickly, combining mood, material, and market timing in a way your team can act on, not just admire.

Built for Real-World Application

These aren’t reference documents.

They’re decision tools.

Built for real use, across high-pressure, design-led environments.

Here’s how the new forecasts translate across sectors:

Furniture & Decorative Accessories

Forecast shapes, finishes, and materials with clarity and commercial context.

Retail & Visual Merchandising

See how a trend flows across ranges, packaging, and customer experience.

Kitchen & Bathroom 

Nail tone, tactility, and flow—before committing to production or build.

Hospitality & Hotels 

Create atmosphere and cohesion from the earliest sketch.

Commercial Fitouts

Align aesthetics with brand values, wellbeing goals, and operational flow.

Architecture & Spatial Planning

Test concepts, scale, and spatial logic—before resource-heavy investment.

“MC&Co’s Trend Intelligence system empowers brands to develop products faster and more precisely than ever. Truly groundbreaking work.” — Philippe Delaisse, CEO, Ethnicraft Asia
