Wellbeing by design is about turning emerging health, sensory and longevity trends into products, spaces and services that genuinely improve everyday life. By combining insight, innovation and human-centred design, brands can create credible, restorative and personalised experiences that help people feel better, not just do more.

Exonomic pressures are now a stronger predictor of behaviour than age, redefining how people access and engage with technology. As living costs rise and global access to the latest technologies is ever harder to keep up with, digital participation is being reshaped by affordability, infrastructure, and skill. Welcome to the Tech Access & Fluency Era, where design and innovation strategy decode new behaviours to design for inclusion and create value from constraint.

As humanity looks outward to the cosmos, we’re forced to rethink how we live together here on Earth. Our Earth Reframed explores what it means to design societies, cultures, and systems for an age where planetary citizenship matters as much as national identity. This isn’t about escaping Earth. It’s about designing futures that allow both our planet and our species to thrive in an interconnected universe.

Space is no longer a distant dream, it’s entering our daily lives. With telescopes detecting signs of life on distant worlds and private companies making spaceflight a commercial reality, the cosmos is shifting from abstract to tangible. In part two of The Human Cosmos, we explore the cultural, ethical, and human-centred implications of a universe within reach, and what it means for the future of design, business, and humanity itself.
