Designed by Matthias Pliessnig, the Amada Bench is entirely made out of air-dried, [responsibly harvested White Oak](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/silva-collection). Created for a private client, it is specifically tailored to the functions of his space. I would love to commission an Amada Bench for myself considering its gorgeously [unique design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ensemble-1). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.8/10 - Popularity: 66% | Activity: 71% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Sinuous Wood Furniture:** Designing unique pieces of furniture using sinuous wood materials has the potential to disrupt the traditional furniture industry. - **Natural Elements in Design:** Incorporating natural elements such as air-dried, responsibly harvested wood into designs can disrupt the artificial and synthetic material industries. - **Tailored Furniture Designs:** Creating furniture customized for the functions of a specific space can disrupt the traditional one-size-fits-all furniture market. ### Where This Applies - **Furniture Manufacturing:** Implementing the use of sinuous wood materials in furniture manufacturing can disrupt traditional methods and create a new market for unique designs. - **Sustainable Materials:** The growth of sustainable materials can disrupt the traditional synthetic materials industry as more consumers seek environmentally friendly options. - **Custom Design Services:** Offering custom design services for tailored furniture can disrupt the traditional mass-produced furniture industry. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Curvacious Oak Seating Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oak-seating.md) - [Curvaceous Sculptural Benches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/strate-bench.md) - [Dual Sculpture Seating Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/immaterial-0001.md) - [Spiral-Inspired Minimal Benches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soul-sculpture-bench.md) - [Sculptural Gravity Benches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/floating-bench.md) - [Organic Form Seating](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/undia.md) - [Sustainable Paper-Infused Benches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/detalji-bench.md) - [Elegant Wooden Seating](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miko-armchair.md) - [Paper Cord-Wrapped Benches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modern-bench.md)
