Designers are increasingly embracing local craftsmanship and natural materials such as stone, clay, and lime, celebrating their authenticity and minimizing carbon footprints. Recycled materials, including reclaimed wood and metal, are also finding creative applications in furniture and finishes. Smart, adaptive reuse of existing structures will gain traction, reducing the need for new constructions.

For interiors, biophilic design is evolving into a more functional framework, incorporating plants not just for aesthetics but for air purification and thermal comfort.
