Eye-catching and different, with three times the surface area--at least, it looks like it offers more space--the Beat Bloom Propeller is as practical as it is good-looking. Designed by [Beat Glaesser](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beat-bookend) and Studio IVANKA, the Beat Bloom Propeller is made out of [concrete](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ancora). With wheels beneath it, the reference to constant motion in its design is not simply illusion. This [dynamic coffee table](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/seahorse-coffee-table) can be used indoors and outdoors. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.9/10 - Popularity: 13% | Activity: 5% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - 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's Driving This Trend - **Multipurpose Furniture:** The trend towards furniture that can serve multiple purposes presents opportunities for designs like the Beat Bloom Propeller table which offers extra surface area and mobility. - **Concrete Design:** The use of concrete as a material in furniture design offers a unique aesthetic that can be incorporated in various types of furniture. - **Dynamic Furniture:** Furniture that is designed to create an illusion of movement, like the Beat Bloom Propeller, provides an opportunity to combine aesthetics and functionality in an eye-catching design. ### Who This Affects Most - **Furniture Manufacturing:** Manufacturers can explore the trend towards multipurpose furniture and the use of concrete in order to create innovative and functional furniture pieces. - **Interior Design:** Interior designers can incorporate dynamic furniture pieces like the Beat Bloom Propeller into their designs to create visually interesting and versatile spaces. - **Outdoor Living:** The versatility of the Beat Bloom Propeller table as an indoor and outdoor piece highlights opportunities for creating furniture that bridges the gap between indoor and outdoor living spaces. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Spinning Storage Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diy-spinning-coffee-table.md) - [Dynamic Sculptural Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/interactive-transformation-table.md) - [Wavy Sculptural Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptural-coffee-tables.md) - [Ultra-Colorful Table Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/never-stop-moving.md) - [Dynamic Strong Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sharp-table.md) - [Moveable Wave-Inspired Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/side-table-concept.md) - [Crawling Dynamic Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carpentopod.md) - [Blurred Bold Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blur-coffee-table.md) - [Playful Accent Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bug-table.md)
