Made in collaboration with German brand Ames, this collection fuses summer's high energy with laid back loungers eliciting feelings of relaxation that can only be achieved through seasonal activities. The collection consists of a series of [colorful seating](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/collection-co), including chairs and benches, as well as tables, all of which were inspired by "traditional weaving technique called momposino from Colombia’s Caribbean coast." The [woven furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/whispers-of-the-wildwood) utilizes entirely [recyclable plastic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/re-up-side-tables) to make the string that weaves itself throughout the steel frame. With intricate designs and bold color combinations, the Caribe furniture collection makes for the perfect eye-catching garden accessory, remaining both elegant and eccentric. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.8/10 - Popularity: 64% | Activity: 43% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Gen X - Top markets: 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 - **Recycled Plastic Furniture:** Further development and innovation in the use of recycled plastic materials for furniture design. - **Colorful and Vibrant Furniture:** More integration of bold and diverse color palettes into furniture design. - **Incorporating Cultural Techniques Into Design:** More exploration and utilization of traditional techniques and styles in modern furniture design. ### Who This Affects Most - **Furniture Manufacturing:** Opportunities for furniture manufacturers to explore and incorporate recycled materials and culturally inspired designs into their products. - **Outdoor and Garden Furniture:** Outdoor furniture companies can utilize the trend of playful and vibrant furniture design to cater to consumers seeking unique and colorful garden accessories. - **Eco-friendly Design:** Opportunities for furniture companies to promote their products as environmentally sustainable and socially responsible by incorporating recycled plastic materials and cultural techniques into design. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Colorful Outdoor Furniture Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cancn-kollection.md) - [Recycled Plastic Furniture Ranges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-nassau-collection.md) - [Outdoor-Ready Structural Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/outdoor-collection-1.md) - [Handcrafted Traditional Outdoor Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/riveria-collection.md) - [Playful Outdoor Seating](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-new-raw-1.md) - [Hammock-Inspired Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/palmera.md) - [Rare Rattan Outdoor Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bohemian-72.md) - [Chic Recycled Material Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vale-furniture-collection.md) - [Pastel Tonal Outdoor Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bombom-collection.md)
