Thinking: Landor’s 2010 trends forecast
Market trends and their impact on brands

In 2010 we’ll see the social web take the spotlight as we learn to filter noise and concentrate on connections. It’s clear that mobile technology has the potential to link people in ways the personal computer can’t approach. Will the phone screen become the first screen?

And what about the world’s growing love affair with green? Will 2010 be the year of the green car—and will sustainability save Detroit? Consumers are driven to buy earth-friendly in all categories, and as their wallets get fatter, we’ll hear them clamoring for more choices.

The airline industry too has changes on the horizon. And tourists the world over are taking control of their travel to an unprecedented degree—using a plethora of websites to learn from each other’s experiences, refusing to pay extra for amenities, and demanding sustainable practices.

Maybe we can’t really foresee the future, but we’re sure 2010 has some surprises in store. So pop a bottle of bubbly, light some firecrackers, and check out our predictions for the coming year.

Market trends for the following industries are included:

• Financial Services
• Social Media
• Airlines
• Design
• Green
• Consumer Spending
• Corporate Social Responsibility
• Hospitality
• Food and Beverage

Magazine concept: Mag+ by Bonnier

This conceptual video is a corporate collaborative research project
initiated by Bonnier R&D into the experience of reading magazines on
handheld digital devices. It illustrates one possible vision for
digital magazines in the near future, presented by our design partners
at BERG.

The concept aims to capture the essence of magazine reading, which
people have been enjoying for decades: an engaging and unique reading
experience in which high-quality writing and stunning imagery build up
immersive stories.

The concept uses the power of digital media to create a rich and
meaningful experience, while maintaining the relaxed and curated
features of printed magazines. It has been designed for a world in
which interactivity, abundant information and unlimited options could
be perceived as intrusive and overwhelming.

The purpose of publishing this concept video is first and foremost to
spark a discussion around the digital reading experience in general,
and digital reading platforms in particular. Thus, we would be more
than happy to hear what you have to say regarding the concept and
ideas expressed in the video: the magazine reading experience, digital
browsing, text versus images, as well as hear about your own digital
reading experiences and thoughts. We are all ears.

Advertising/Outdoor: St. Matthew-in-the-City - Mary and Joseph

In its ongoing effort to provoke conversation about spiritual matters, St Matthew-in-the-City will be putting up a Christmas billboard on Thursday that lampoons literalism and invites people to think again about what amiracle is.

Mary and Joseph are in bed.  Joseph looks down dejected.  Mary looks sad.  The caption reads: “Poor Joseph. God is a hard act to follow.”   It is intended to challenge stereotypes about the way that Jesus wasconceived and get people talking about the Christmas story.

Google & Audi take Google services in a car to the next level in the new Audi

With their newly unveiled Audi A8, Audi is the first car manufacturer to bring Google Earth directly into the vehicle and to combine that with a set of useful Google services. We’ve worked closely with them to create a compelling in-car experience integrated with the Audi navigation system. You’ll be able to enjoy 3D satellite imagery, terrain information and a wealth of additional geo information relevant to your current location: layers like Wikipedia to learn more about your surroundings or Panoramio images to get another view.
