2024 DESIGN TRENDS FOR A DIGITAL WORLD

Vicaima opens the door to fresh inspirations for construction in the AI era
It ’ s a common exercise in any sector of activity - to foresee macro-trends , understand phenomena and draw up plans to respond to those same expectations of a future that is always more innovative , challenging and non-linear . The complementary worlds of architecture , construction and design are no exception and are the forerunners of boldness and disruption of norms , an attitude that brings them closer to the frontier between the beauty of evolution and the power of change .
As one of Europe ’ s major players in the design and production of cutting-edge solutions for interior doors , technical doors , frames , wardrobes , panels and furniture pieces , Vicaima identifies some of the focal priorities that are already being followed by professionals in the field and whose relevance is expected to increase this year .
One point will be common to all sectors - the transformative power of artificial intelligence ( AI ). Whether for interior design and decoration or in construction processes and software , disruptive technologies will have an influence on the efficiency within the different phases of a project , from the generation of 3D models , integrated project management or the selection of decorative elements , enhancing the creativity and uniqueness of spaces by combining the analytical capacity of digital tools with the aesthetic and functional sensitivity of the human insight .
How can we go even further and understand what lines will shape the future of these sectors ? Let ’ s go through , in detail , the features , concepts and movements that promise to make 2024 a transformative era .
Sustainability factors will continue to play an essential role
This year , sustainability will play a role in more than the choice of a decorative product , through elements that reflect the appreciation of local culture , proximity to communities and consideration for future generations .
