# Urban Jungle Jewelry The Cityscape Ring is an Abstract Representation of Infrastructural Masses By Amelia Roblin | Published 2013-03-07 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cityscape-ring References: [designspotter](http://www.designspotter.com/product/2013/03/cityscape-pixel-ring.html) & [artejoyas.mx](http://www.artejoyas.com.mx/en/component/tiendawhata/?view=articulo&id=102&nombre=Anillo) The pixelated motif has grown quite popular, but instead of having been computer-inspired, the Cityscape Ring's design was influenced by the look of the dense 21st century city. These rectangular forms have been extruded to the third dimension and clustered to form a jagged surface that's similar to a metropolitan skyline. Arte Joyas used sandblasted sterling silver to create the contemporary piece of finger-worn fashion. This was then coated in a matte finish, different from the shiny aesthetic that's normally drawn from the precious metal. This gives it a slightly more [industrial look](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/titanium-mechanical-ring). The band and the feature of the Cityscape Ring are both made from the fragmented six-sided forms. It's [bold and chunky](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chiyu) and quite the statement as a great example of a chic urban accessory. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.8/10 - Popularity: 59% | Activity: 46% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Pixelated Jewelry:** The popularity of pixelated motifs presents an opportunity to create innovative jewelry designs inspired by digital aesthetics. - **Industrial Fashion:** The use of matte finishes and industrial materials in jewelry opens up possibilities for creating edgy and contemporary fashion accessories. - **City-inspired Designs:** Designs inspired by urban landscapes can offer a unique and visually striking aesthetic for jewelry and other fashion items. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Jewelry Design:** Incorporating pixelated motifs and industrial materials in jewelry designs can attract customers seeking modern and trendy fashion accessories. - **Fashion Accessories:** The use of city-inspired designs in fashion accessories can tap into the growing demand for unique and statement pieces among fashion-forward consumers. - **Urban Fashion:** Creating urban-themed fashion items like the Cityscape Ring can cater to the urban fashion subculture and appeal to individuals seeking edgy and bold fashion choices. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Brick Toy-Inspired Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-gogo.md) - [Collaboration Automotive Ring Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/manly-bands-x-jeep-rock-crawler-ring.md) - [Ultra-Chic Bridal Jewelry Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2025-engagement-ring.md) - [Bug-Inspired Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/murder-hornet-ring.md) - [Japan-Inspired Wearable Watch Rings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stasto-stand-stones.md) - [Dynamic Energy-Inspired Luxury Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aura-collections.md) - [Confectionery-Inspired Ring Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brilliant-earth.md) - [Ombre Statement Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/erin-tracy-ombr-stack.md) - [Luxurious Smart Rings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rare-ring.md)
