Australia-based brand **[Aesop](http://www.aesop.net.au)**, which specializes in boutique botanical skincare products, built a retail store in Adelaide that has a ceiling crafted entirely out of recycled bottles arranged in a funky wave pattern. Aesop has been expanding its base of operation and these new Australian stores are part of that big phase of expansion. The company recently opened boutiques in Paris and London's swanky Mayfair. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.6/10 - Popularity: 65% | Activity: 64% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Sustainable Design:** Exploring innovative ways to use recycled materials in product and store design, like Aesop's recycled bottle ceiling, can help businesses create more sustainable and visually appealing spaces. - **Retail Store Experience:** Creating unique and visually striking elements, such as a recycled bottle ceiling, can enhance the overall retail store experience and attract customers looking for a memorable shopping environment. - **Expansion Strategies:** As businesses expand into new markets, incorporating sustainable design elements like Aesop's recycled bottle ceiling can help differentiate their brand and attract environmentally conscious customers. ### Where This Applies - **Sustainable Fashion:** The fashion industry can explore the use of recycled materials in store design, like Aesop's recycled bottle ceiling, to showcase their commitment to sustainability and attract eco-conscious consumers. - **Interior Design:** Interior designers can incorporate innovative and sustainable elements, such as a recycled bottle ceiling, in their projects to create unique and visually appealing spaces for their clients. - **Retail:** Retailers can take inspiration from Aesop's recycled bottle ceiling to create visually exciting and environmentally friendly store environments that set them apart from competitors. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Algae Lit Retail Caves](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aesop-hainan.md) - [Book Pile Retail Decor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aesop-store-1.md) - [Sensorial Luxury Beauty Stores](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aesop-flagship.md) - [Upcycled Beauty Retail Interiors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beauty-retail1.md) - [Tactile Soap-Adorned London Shops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aesop-outlet.md) - [Recycling-Focused Store Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cos-2.md) - [Traditional Pavilion Skincare Stores](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/samuso-hyojadong.md) - [Illuminating Collaborative Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aesop-and-bocci.md) - [Recycled Glass Retail Facades](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bulgari-shanghai.md)
