Throughout the year, The Agency team tracks and forecasts the latest design trends they’re seeing across the luxury brand’s 150 offices and thousands of agents and clients that span 15 countries. This recurring project involves visually communicating the latest shifts to the brand’s global audience across all owned channels—including social media, the company website, and their biannual newspaper, The Agency Times. As a staple of the annual editorial calendar, this series ensures the brand remains a primary voice in the luxury lifestyle conversation.
INSPIRATION
In early 2025, we saw neo-vintage revival take hold, alongside playful geometric shapes and earth-inspired tones and textures in furnishings, and a revival of 1980s opulence. With such a rich variety of shapes and hues to work with, I chose to center each individual piece—framing each trending style against descriptive text to make each piece the focal point against the signature bold reds of The Agency brand.
PROCESS
This project presented an opportunity to showcase a multitude of distinctive styles. I leaned into this by making individual furniture and decor pieces the focal point of each asset. For the email marketing and social media collateral, I masked out photo backgrounds to allow each piece to stand alone. To pull the look together, I paired these visuals with trending typography I’d found through my research, and opted for bold fonts. I worked closely with the editorial team to get this new style for this content series approved.
GOAL
This multichannel trend series is a staple of The Agency’s annual editorial calendar, published several times a year and shared both internally with agents and externally with a global consumer audience across the brand’s social channels and digital platforms. The objective was to create eye-catching visuals to pair with the content where the imagery—provided by 1stDibs—could stand on its own.
RESULT
The Agency’s design and editorial team scoped out architecture, design, fashion, and art publications to find up-and-coming decor and interior design trends. We curated photos of pieces that were clear examples of the broader style trends we were seeing. The final assets were shared across The Agency’s agent and client network, and with the brand’s more than half a million followers on Instagram.
