The artist used different young adults as his subjects -- some single and some in relationships -- to reveal his message. The bedroom photography shows the moments, minutes or hours before the subjects fall asleep and how they spend those hours -- on their cellphones like most of us often are. Where reading, talking to loved ones or watching TV used to be the norm before bedtime, now it is the [use of cellphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/digital-detox-device) that is most common. This photography series was created to make a statement about the disruptions, both positive and negative, that smartphones have brought to people's daily routines. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.2/10 - Popularity: 88% | Activity: 60% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Modern](https://www.trendhunter.com/modern) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Bedroom Technology:** Opportunities for creating products that mitigate the negative effects of technology in the bedroom. - **Nighttime Routine Disruption:** Opportunities for creating products that disrupt the negative effects of screen time before bed. - **Digital Detoxification:** Opportunities for creating services and products that facilitate unplugging from technology before bedtime. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Health and Wellness:** The health industry can create technology to help people combat the negative effects of nighttime cellphone use on sleep. - **Smart Home:** Smart home companies can integrate features to encourage healthier nighttime routines and better sleep, such as dimming lights or playing calming music. - **Tourism:** Tourism companies can create retreats or experiences that facilitate digital detoxification and encourage better sleep habits. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Miniature Phone Beds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/phone-sleep.md) - [Intentional Disconnection Device Chargers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/share-power.md) - [Smartphone-Friendly Bed Frames](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/koble-designs-nodd-smart-bed.md) - [Tech-Forward Teen Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rooms-to-go-kids-cloud9.md) - [Contemporary Smartphone Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-world-in-my-hand.md) - [Tech-Rich Bedside Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hiinteriors-histand.md) - [Dating App-Collaborative Bed Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/multipurpose-bed.md) - [Smartphone Addiction Meditation Lanterns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/digital-detox-device.md) - [Redefining Screen-Free Cameras](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/camp-snap.md)
