Symbols Of The Noughties i-Decade

Symbols Of The Noughties i-Decade

There's a thought provoking feature in this quarter's Intelligent Life reflecting on the styles and items that have defined the past ten years.

In our Future Facing Trend workshops we regularly ask our workshop delegates to leave everything at the door that didn't exist ten years ago … in order to force them to reflect on how different the world is likely to be just ten years from now.

Intelligent Life's list includes: Toyota Prius, iPhone / iPod, MySpace, Facebook, Twitter, EasyJet / Ryanair, Size "0" Celebrities, Hoodies, Swiss RE Gherkin, Burj Al Arab, and rather sadly … Bernie Madoff's Smile.
