Embracing modern technological necessities while putting them in line with concepts and aesthetics from [Bauhaus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cine-play-1) and art deco, the TV is designed to be the focal point of any room rather than an extraneous accouterments. Technically speaking, the Bild 9 is a [flat-screen OLED monitor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lg-w6-wallpaper-tv) with a profile of just 7 millimeters, making it thinner than most peoples' smartphones. The OLED system also has a nearly instant response time, moving from pure darkness to a dazzling screen in less than a microsecond. Tech aside, what really separates the Bild 9 from other TVs is its sculptural design. It comes with a art deco- and Bauhaus-inspired hand-forged steel frame that can stand in the middle of a room or mount on a wall. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.6/10 - Popularity: 52% | Activity: 49% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Home](https://www.trendhunter.com/home) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Art Deco-inspired Televisions:** Opportunity to disrupt the television industry by combining modern technology with art deco aesthetics. - **Sculptural Television Design:** Opportunity to create unique and visually striking television designs that serve as a focal point in a room. - **Ultra-thin OLED Monitors:** Opportunity to revolutionize the monitor industry with thinner screens that still provide exceptional image quality. ### Who This Affects Most - **Consumer Electronics:** Opportunity for consumer electronics companies to innovate and offer visually appealing TVs with modern technologies. - **Interior Design:** Opportunity for interior design companies to integrate televisions as sculptural elements in their design concepts. - **Display Technology:** Opportunity for display technology companies to develop ultra-thin OLED monitors with fast response times for various applications. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Artistically Enhanced TVs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stylish-tv.md) - [Concrete-Accented Luxury TVs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loewe-stellar.md) - [Oversized Opulent TV Models](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loewe-stellar-tv.md) - [Canvas-Like TVs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lg-objet-tv.md) - [Photo Frame-Like Televisions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nxtframe.md) - [Artful Flush-Mount TVs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/c1-canvas-art-tv.md) - [Art-Inspired Gallery TVs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lg-gallery-tv.md) - [Lifestyle Art Televisions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gallery-tv.md) - [Sculptural Folding TVs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/c-seed-n1.md)
