Each year Adobe Stock, a platform stacked with millions of stock media from images and graphics to videos and illustrations, scours the world to develop a report that showcases the hottest trends for the new year. The purpose? To give brands and creatives a leg up in the fast-paced digital age in which we live.
“In 2019, our visual landscape will reflect far more than fleeting fads, likes, and shares,” says the Adboe stock team in a press release. “Weâll be surrounded by images that capture passionate, beautiful, ageless, contentious, messy cultural conversations about values, how we express our individuality and experiences, and how we find refuge in tumultuous times.”
For Seeing 2019: The Visual Trend Forecast from Adobe Stock, they’re predicting a year characterized by four leading developments theyâve dubbed Brand Stand, Disruptive Expression, Creative Democracy and Natural Instincts.
