The February 2021 world trends continue to adapt to the new normal, offering new products and services that can be enjoyed safely. With travel still prohibited in many areas across the globe, companies are offering new and immersive ways to go on adventures.
One example is by Google and its new virtual theme park that highlights Japanese cuisine. Introducing Umami Land, where visitors can explore the digital world and learn about the traditional dishes and where they can find it in their local areas. Another great trend this month is inspired by Netflix's The Queen's Gambit. The Harmon Room is a mid-century themed hotel room that is designed after the scenes from the popular show including dripping chess pieces.
