The table is characterized by the large reel on the base that hides a totally of five USB ports as well as two conventional power outlets. The rolling design of the table means it can be shifted around a space to seamlessly suit the needs of users; a built-in handle on the top section further aids movement and repositioning. A retractable cord for electrical access has an extending design that can be quickly pulled back in with the touch of a single button. The conceptual 'Code Reel Table' is the design work of [Zinus Inc.](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/green-tea-luxe-memory-foam-mattress) and is the winner of the 2019 Red Dot Design Concept Award. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.5/10 - Popularity: 80% | Activity: 46% | Freshness: 9% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/furniture) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Multifunctional Furniture:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create furniture that serves multiple purposes, such as combining charging capabilities with stylish design. - **Seamless Mobility:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop furniture that can be easily moved and adapted to different spaces, enhancing flexibility and convenience. - **Hidden Technology:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Design furniture that cleverly conceals technology, providing a clean and minimalist aesthetic while still offering convenient access. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Furniture:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introduce innovative furniture designs that incorporate charging capabilities for modern tech devices, catering to the digitally connected consumer. - **Interior Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create interior designs that prioritize functionality and technology integration while maintaining an elegant and cohesive look. - **Smart Home:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop smart home solutions that seamlessly integrate technology into everyday furniture, enhancing convenience for tech-savvy homeowners. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Tech-Packed Bedroom Nightstands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-bedside-table.md) - [Minimalist Tech-Charging Side Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adap-table.md) - [Tech-Friendly Side Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nendo-twins-side-table.md) - [Subtly Smart Dining Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/etto-table.md) - [Moveable Wave-Inspired Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/side-table-concept.md) - [Minimalist Modular Desk Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/console-desk.md) - [Artistic Tech-Charging Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/combi-table-lamp.md) - [Technology Disconnection Side Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unhook-table.md) - [Spinning Storage Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diy-spinning-coffee-table.md)
