# Burning Cities London and Rome Featured in Artistic Firescreens By Howard Wu | Published 2009-10-17 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/artistic-firescreens References: [allabbm.blogspot](http://allabbm.blogspot.com/2009/06/dcccxvii-auc-1666.html) & [gspotdesign.it](http://www.gspotdesign.it/shop/productview.action?idCollezione=9&product.id=163&lang=it&menuItem=collezioni) These burning cityscapes were designed by Gabrio Ghezzi of GSpot Design. Featuring the cities of London and Rome, these steel artistic firescreens bring an artistic and cultured look to any living room. While these artistic firescreens are in good taste, there is of course an unfortunate side. One can't help but wonder what other images (possibly distasteful ones) could also be marketed with a burning background. **Implications** - The artistic firescreens would definitely make for some interesting and different home decor. It would be like watching a mini city burn before your very eyes. Even if you don't have a fireplace in your home, the works of Gabrio Ghezzi will still look great simply standing against a wall. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.6/10 - Popularity: 22% | Activity: 18% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Artistic Firescreens:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Expanding the concept of firescreens by incorporating artistic designs and cityscapes. - **Cultured Home Decor:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Creating unique home decor pieces that combine art and functionality, appealing to consumers seeking artistic and cultural elements in their living spaces. - **Immersive Home Experiences:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Designing immersive home decor items that create visually captivating experiences, such as the illusion of a burning city. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Interior Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Collaborating with artists and designers to create innovative home decor products that push the boundaries of traditional interior design. - **Art Market:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Showcasing and promoting unique artistic creations like Gabrio Ghezzi's burning cityscapes to tap into the growing demand for distinctive art pieces. - **Home Furnishings:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Developing unconventional home furnishings that combine functionality with artistic elements, providing customers with visually striking and thought-provoking pieces. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Slick Modern Holographic Fireplaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/holographic-fireplace.md) - [Laser-Cut Urban Artistry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/laser-cut-city-maps.md) - [Cooking-Friendly Outdoor Fireplaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/regg-surprise.md) - [Commemorative Parisian Art Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kamel-mennour.md) - [Disaster-Striken New Furniture Exhibits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/future-perfect.md) - [Eco-Friendly Bioethanol Fireplaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glammfire-contour.md) - [Communal Fireplace Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hearth-coffee-table.md) - [Flatpack Virtual Fireplaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/graphene-radiator.md) - [Moder Stove Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moder-stove.md)
