These reports focus on the key trends that are shaping the market and each trend is investigated regularly, in particular time dynamics.
The way architects are getting information is changing rapidly. Digitalization, the changing DMU and how they orientate and cooperate in the value chain and the way they design are changing. This trend makes pull marketing much more important. In order to do pull marketing, it’s vital to know your target group and it’s vital for a good marketing strategy to have this information. Trends and themes will be repeated in 1, 2 or 3-year intervals. This way, trendlines and predictions can be made. A lot of data can be found on building volumes or the construction industry as a whole, however specific information on the architectural market is hard to find.
