    Having a special touch is timeless! It's what have done the most important artists: "They started a trend and then the others follow them". We can mention: Monet as the starter of Impressionism, Van Gogh as what could shape Expressionism, Mondrian as reference of the Stijl among others... Then you should you have a special "touch" that can identify you among others, in this respect the client will follow for "what you are" not because of a "trend"... because "you are the trend" that is not the same. We have in this respect the story that is ahead the trend and what shapes the indentity of the artist and designer as Piccasso for instance with Cubism. In desing we have Ñiko from Cuba, Kari Piippo from Finland, Isztván Orosz from Hungary

    Trendspotting: I make it a habit to follow design blogs, attend webinars, and explore platforms like Behance and Dribbble to keep up with emerging trends. This helps me integrate fresh ideas into my presentations. Feedback Loops: Regularly collecting feedback through forms or quick check-ins ensures I align with client expectations and can pivot quickly if needed. Personalization: Customizing presentations based on a client’s brand identity and goals helps build stronger connections and higher satisfaction rates.
