Enabling designers to create for tomorrow
The challenge
Designers face constant pressure to keep pace with fast-changing consumer expectations, materials and aesthetics. Our members use Stylus to stay ahead – accessing the cross-industry intelligence they need to design with purpose, confidence and originality.
Anticipate consumer need
Stylus helps members move beyond data- and AI-led sameness, combining cultural insight with visually rich reporting to spark bold creative thinking backed by commercial rigour.
Our six pillars of innovation – Luxury, Sustainability, Digital, Wellness, Inclusivity and Convenience – reveal what’s driving today’s consumers and how their values are evolving. Paired with our Macro Trend Reports and Design Forecasts, our members are equipped with the foresight and stimuli to shape the future of consumer lifestyles, products and experiences.
Stay connected to the global design movement
Members stay inspired by the latest ideas from around the world – without leaving their studio. Our experts attend more than 100 key events each year, from CES to Milan Design Week, distilling the highlights, visuals and insights that matter most.
Stylus's cross-industry approach means members see beyond their own sector, uncovering opportunities others miss – whether in automotive CMF, fashion, interiors, consumer tech, architecture, packaging or beauty. Explore curated palettes, materials and finishes that help you create what consumers don’t yet know they want.
And for those looking to ignite their creative thinking, inviting our experts into seasonal kick-off sessions is a brilliant way to explore the latest shifts in colour, typography and visual language, bringing fresh energy and strategic clarity to your design process.
“Stylus has been a fantastic resource that has allowed us to understand and validate product direction over the past few years. Working in a niche product area it had previously been difficult to get worth out of other forecasting providers. However, the consumer centric, macro and cross industry approach that stylus have, has really added value to our product design and commercial strategies. Their customer focussed approach has also been supportive, helping the team to see relevant content quickly and with ease.”
