Trend Trackers Edition

Up-to-the-moment trend flashpoints explored

From the Creators

The use of terms related to wellbeing and healthful living has become so ubiquitous that it’s easy to dismiss them as mere marketing phrases. But we must look beyond that. In its many, often intersecting, facets, wellness has evolved from self-care to life-care.

Today’s consumer evaluates every purchase—home, lifestyle and housewares—through a wellness lens that balances emotional return, functional value and personal meaning.

Consumers aren’t chasing perfection; they’re seeking balance, reassurance and emotional return in everyday choices.

The most successful products and experiences address multiple dimensions of wellness at once, supporting not just how people live, but how they feel while living that way.

With this in mind, we’ve dedicated this issue to defining modern wellness and highlighting the products bringing it to life. and

Expert Perspective

Q: Do consumers associate sustainability with wellness?

A: Absolutely, consumers increasingly associate sustainability with wellness, especially when it signals healthier materials, cleaner indoor air, and safer homes. That’s a positive tailwind for our industry. At the same time, sustainability and wellness aren’t synonymous. Truly “healthy” choices should also consider the environmental footprint and social responsibility across the supply chain. The strongest products and brands connect all three: human health, the planet and people.

Trend Tracker : Into the Woods

Mixed Material Moment

Woods are extending their major moment in home and housewares, with favored designs moving beyond single-species simplicity to more dynamic, layered looks. Mixed stains and wood pairings —think warm oak with cool ash or deep walnut—sit at the high-end across furniture, cabinetry and décor. The result is a trend that feels both timeless and modern, embracing craftsmanship and natural variation to elevate everyday spaces.

Expert Perspective

Q: How are wellness considerations changing interior design?

A: Wellness is no longer an overlay in interior design. It has become a core driver of how spaces are conceived, specified and experienced. At Everick Brown Design, we see wellness as the intersection of physical comfort, psychological ease and environmental responsibility. Conceptually, this means moving beyond aesthetics toward environments that actively support how people feel, think and perform. We are increasingly attentive to the cumulative impact of light, color, materiality, acoustics and spatial flow.

Trend Tracker : Hearts of Stone

Energized, Elegant, Expressive

Stone continues to hold a strong place in home and housewares, newly energized by color and dramatic pattern. Softly hued onyx and marbles— from pale greens to gentle pinks—are gaining popularity for their natural elegance. In an opposing trend, marbles with high-contrast veining is on the rise, adding bold, graphic impact to serveware, accent pieces and décor.

Meanwhile, low-contrast grey marbles have faded slightly, giving way to more expressive stones that blur the boundary between functional design and artistic statement.

Expert Perspective

Q: Looking ahead, what role will social media play in consumers' wellness goals and aspirations?

A: Consumers are using social media to discover health and wellness routines, products and habits that feel doable in real life. It’s less about idealized lifestyles and more about seeing how wellness fits into everyday homes. For home and housewares brands, this creates an opportunity to show practical use, small upgrades and realistic rituals that support how people actually live, rest and care for themselves day to day.
