We asked Thomas Lundgren, CEO and Founder of The One, what he thinks design will look like over the next century

In 100 years the world will be a very different place.

The planet seems to be innovating at an unprecedented rate (and it shows no signs of slowing down). But flying cars and entire meals in pill form aside, what will the world of look like in a century’s time?

According to Thomas Lundgren, CEO and Founder of The One, interior design is going through rapid changes. 

“People are increasingly living in smaller and smaller spaces, which means that furniture also needs to get smaller and more functional. In a 100-years, I see this trend continuing, but I also see a world where perhaps we don’t own so much furniture.”

“That doesn’t mean people will have less stuff, but I think because people are moving houses more frequently they will end up renting more furniture. I have three daughters, and while I would love for them to join the family business, I would never ask them to. That’s because to do anything properly, you need passion. That’s something that will never change over the next century.”
