# Compact Artful Apartment Interiors TOPOS DESIGN CLANS Produces an Engaging & Whimsical Environment By Kalin Ned | Published 2018-08-02 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/artful-apartment References: [topos-design](http://www.topos-design.com/) This 80-square-meter artful apartment in Shanghai is aesthetically curated by studio [TOPOS DESIGN CLANS](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/topos). The space boasts incredible creativity and the stylistic elements evoke the feeling of a multi-media exhibition. The color coordination is impeccable as the artful apartment is visually divided by texture and nuance. Dubbed as a "realistic utopia," TOPOS DESIGN CLANS' arrangement is geared to motivate and satisfy the preferences and living habits of a husband, his wife and their two dogs. Since the male client is a painter, the artful apartment will serve a dual function — a home and a studio. This eclectic and expressive approach to [interior design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/primrose-apartment) is conducted under a project called ARTLAND IN SHANGHAI. The idea originated through a Chinese TV Show about renovation — 'Change Your Life.' 2 Photo Credits: CreatAR Images (AI Qing, WU Jianquan) ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.6/10 - Popularity: 73% | Activity: 57% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Aesthetic Curation:** Opportunity for companies to create visually curated spaces that evoke emotions and engage the senses. - **Multi-media Inspiration:** Opportunity for industries to incorporate multi-media elements into their designs and products, creating immersive and interactive experiences. - **Dual-function Spaces:** Opportunity for businesses to cater to the growing demand for spaces that serve multiple purposes, such as homes doubling as studios or offices. ### Who This Affects Most - **Interior Design:** Opportunity for interior design firms to embrace artistic curation and create unique, immersive environments for clients. - **Home Renovation:** Opportunity for the home renovation industry to incorporate multi-media elements and technology-driven solutions into their offerings, transforming traditional spaces into interactive showcases. - **Art and Creative Studios:** Opportunity for art studios and creative spaces to explore the concept of dual-function spaces, catering to artists' needs for both living and working environments. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Eclectic Paris Apartments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-asa.md) - [Immersive Artful Apartments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oveneck-33.md) - [Playful Apartment Makeovers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/onda-apartment.md) - [Retro-Rich Kraków Apartment](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/krakw-apartment.md) - [Vibrant Milanese Apartments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/milanese-apartment.md) - [Nostalgic 70s-Inspired Apartments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/house-special-studio.md) - [Whimsical Vibrantly Decorated Apartments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/daria-vasilkova.md) - [Contemporary Artful Bright Apartments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/krakow-apartment.md) - [Ultra-Slick Modern Apartment Interiors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modern-apartment-interior.md)
