At last, another trend I can actually see and go and play with! This is the work of Sam Buxton who was commissioned by [Young J Song](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/young-flyer-airport-lounge), the owner of Bordello Bar, to create a [unique interior](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bar-far) to make this a pure drinking destination. To deliver the concept, designer Sam Buxton, worked in collaboration with textile designer Emily Hiller. Between them, they have knitt a superb interior. Buxton's statement designs run through the bar's two main rooms, entrance area and stairs. In these areas, the walls are covered with red curtains of hand-tied netting. Another feature is woven fabric that has been laid over wire to create tree-like shapes set off against metal sheeting. Other touches include liquor bottles held in net sacks and steel cabling which creates a unique tunnel for serving trays. "According to the designer, the seating and lighting were integrated to make it appear as though the interior is constructed from a single surface," Core77 says. "Together, the wall hangings and a sculptural installation in the bar's main room contain 2.5km of knitted, hand-knotted and woven cord." I cannot wait to go! ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.1/10 - Popularity: 58% | Activity: 27% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [World](https://www.trendhunter.com/world) > [Regional](https://www.trendhunter.com/regional) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Knitted Interiors:** Opportunity for incorporating knitted designs in interior spaces, creating unique and visually appealing environments. - **Concept Collaboration:** Collaboration between designers from different fields to create innovative and cohesive designs. - **Textile Innovations:** Exploring new techniques and materials in textile design to create unique and artistic installations. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Hospitality:** Opportunity to transform hospitality spaces, such as nightclubs and bars, with innovative and captivating designs. - **Interior Design:** Opportunity for interior designers to experiment with unconventional materials and techniques to create visually stunning interiors. - **Textile and Fashion:** Exploration of new possibilities in textile and fashion industry, integrating knitted designs and unconventional materials in unique ways. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Timeless Members’ Club Interiors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/members-club-interior.md) - [Cozy Neighborhood Warm Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gachot.md) - [Knitted New York Subways](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/straphangers-lounge.md) - [Playful Bar Interiors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/funny-bar.md) - [Repurposed Museum Nightclub-In-Residence](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fabric-london.md) - [Artful Listening Wine Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/goodbye-horses-1.md) - [Eccentric Soho Hotels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/martin-brudnizki.md) - [Knitted Lighting Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/knit-series.md) - [Signature Bright Red Nightclubs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/silencio-nyc.md)
