The smartphone stand is crafted out of solid cement and thus weighs in at more than two-pounds to ensure it won't shift or topple during use. The stand is hand-mixed and cast to give it a rustic profile with no two quite alike, while a microsuction pad is installed onto the unit to keep the smartphone in place. The Artifox Monument iPhone stand works with MagSafe chargers to provide charging in a wireless way and will thus support the smartphone being positioned in either portrait or landscape orientation. The unit is well-suited for nightstands or desktops. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 7.2/10 - Popularity: 96% | Activity: 96% | Freshness: 25% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Brutalist Tech Accessories:** Brutalist design in tech accessories merges industrial aesthetics with functionality, providing consumers with sturdy and unique options for everyday tech use. - **Hand-crafted Device Holders:** Hand-crafted device holders offer a personalized, artisanal touch to tech products, appealing to consumers seeking individuality and craftsmanship. - **Microsuction Pad Integration:** Integrating microsuction pads in device holders secures gadgets firmly, enhancing the usability and safety of tech accessories. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Consumer Electronics:** Consumer electronics manufacturers are incorporating durability and unique designs into accessories to target style-conscious and practical users. - **Home Decor:** The home decor industry sees potential in tech-related items that blend functionality with aesthetic appeal, catering to modern lifestyle needs. - **Artisanal Crafts:** Artisanal crafts markets benefit from the demand for hand-crafted tech accessories that offer uniqueness and a personal touch. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [High-End Design Smartphone Docks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magsafe-iphone-stand.md) - [Architectural Charging Stands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-upright.md) - [Retro Computer Smartphone Stands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/elago-m4-charging-stand.md) - [Pocket-Sized Smartphone Stands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mophie-portable-magnetic-stand.md) - [Quick-Charge Smartphone Mounts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nomad-stand-one-magsafe-charger.md) - [Timber Clamp-Equipped Smartphone Mounts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iphone-desk-shelf-mount.md) - [Cable Storage Smartphone Stands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hold-the-phone-stand.md) - [Magsafe Phone Stand Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/orbit-phone.md) - [Timber Smartwatch Charging Mounts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/charging-apple-watch-stand.md)
