CONNECT: IN EVERY WAY

Why not use foodideas for plant Concepts? Connect domains. 25 years of FASHION experience is Combined with the love for Consumers and their total world, their daily life. TRENDLOGIC has experience in FASHION, FLORAL, FOOD, FURNITURE and other areas. COMPANIES need CONCEPTS & PRODUCTS that fit their values and Chosen style. Those products have to be Connected with timespirit in order to be attractive for Consumers.
Everything inspires me. I don't have a job during part of the day, I have a life within my work. While shopping I analyse, I get in Contact with Consumers, with real life, which gives me the ability to succesfully Combine Common sense with a vision.
COORDINATE: COLLECTIONS & DESIGN PROCES
 TRENDLOGIC has tools to make Collection building more Commercial & Clear. Effective Collection building gives designers space for Creativity. A Coherent Creative Collection sells itself.
To get the message, Consumers need to get the total picture. It helps them to Connect with products or brands, in the same way as they Connect with FRIENDS. Certain expectations are Created. To Connect with Consumers on a long term base, you have to be Clear in your total story, every detail Counts. Wthin fashion collections, it can mean being SET MINDED, but just as important is the behaviour of the sales staff and the presentation.
COLLECT: IDEAS & INSPIRATION
 By Combining what we see, hear, read and taste we Create a new vision. We Collect images everywhere.
Every product Comes with a story. Just lovely pieces that make me smile and inspire me, vintage and modern design, tableware, vases, pots, toys, plastic dolls, frames, books, fabrics, ribbons, buttons, hats, stockings, old dresses, bags, pins, seeds, stones, pieces of wood, shells and more stuff which, to another may seem useless. I translate this Collector Craze into flexibility and an open-mind towards Chaos. It is a Challenge to bring structure to what might look uncoordinated. ORGANIZING without loosing emotional attachment makes my work relevant.
"Solutions can pop up everywhere, any time and are not limited to my waking hours only."

CVP
More than USP (unique selling proposition) we believe in the importance of a CONNECTED VALUE PROPOSITION We start with describing your VALUES with you. TRENDLOGIC will visualize them for you. We connect these values with a Chosen STYLE.
CONVERT THRUTH

THERE IS NO TRUTH, JUST DIFFERENCES IN PERCEPTION
TRENDLOGIC CONNECTS RATIONAL & EMOTIONAL TRUTH. We all react different to everything we see, feel, taste or hear. Is YOUR truth THE truth? The fact is that 70% of most Consumer products are bought by women! Directors, managers, buyers, designers, marketing and sales teams are a vital force who need to form a Cohesive group. To make this happen a Clear BRAND VALUE description translated in STYLE DIRECTION, is vital. We provide this in a NEW VISUAL LANGUAGE. Then and only then the emotional truth can be Connected with rational truth.
At TRENDLOGIC we think with our hearts, like most women do. We realize that it is essential to Connect heart & logic.
CONSUMER COMMITMENT

EVERYTHING STARTS AND ENDS WITH A FOCUS ON THE END USERS.
Consumers Connect with their heart. Emotional attachment lasts much longer than price bennefit. There are situations when rational motivation is a more dominant factor.
CONNECT IN TIME

TIME SPIRIT INFLUENCES CONSUMER WHISHES
We C and visualize those needs. TIME CONSCIOUSNESS is staying Connected. What does it mean for your focus group? How does time spirit effect them? What could Challenge them to buy more?
I am not just a trend watcher, I am a trend analyst and translator. What could your brand or product do, to be CONNECTED with Changes in time. Does your focus group love CONTEMPORARY or TRADITIONAL products? What is their 'TRENDSPEED'? Does this fit your brand?
TRENDLOGIC LANGUAGE & TOOLS
CONFIDENCE & CONVENIENCE
A NEW A B C CONFLICT & CONNECTION CODES in STYLE
COOKING like a CHEF
CUT or CUDDLE |
= C a different Q = Fashion level Connection
= Colour & other product ingredients (dis)order

These tools are used in projects or seminars.
CONFIDENCE & CONVENIENCE

CONNECTING STARTS WITH QUALITY
Reliabillity and quality are boundary Conditions, not values. For every price Class there is a good quality. It is a rational (measurable) truth that depends on the possible spending power. Without the expected quality for a Certain price you would not survive in any market.
GOOD QUALITY is also a perception. Beauty gives Confidence to a product or person. The quality of beauty & trends can not be measured. The handkerchiefs shown are of excellent quality and design but were found in a rubbish bin
TRENDLOGIC CONSULTANCY
IN-COMPANY PROJECTS
Working as a vice director design I experienced the effectiveness of Creating brand awareness. Because of that my starting point as an independant Consultant is always brand awareness for the total Company.
There are so many subjects and people in Companies who need to be Connected. We help Companies to become effective within their brand values.
STRATEGIC CONSULTANCY Some Companies have brand values, others only have rational descriptions like quality or trustworthyness. By optimizing and Creating translation from value to style, we ensure all members to have the same objectives. Adding pictures to words we make any rational positioning story emotionally alive.
