# Flower Stem Speakers Constant Garden By Ayman | Published 2008-06-04 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/constant-garden References: [techdigest](http://techdigest.tv/2008/06/constant_garden.html) The **Constant Garden** allows you to take a break from the monotone world of [stylish yet cold speaker designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brutalist-speaker) by bringing a [splash of color](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/t3-jepson) and a whole lot of funk in form. Each stem (which looks like Shrek's ear) of this little speaker garden contains a mini speaker. The [dynamic system](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/acoustic-sculpture-speaker) was created by a design team of students from the *Umea Design School* led by designers Annika Ushio and Vanessa Satele in "an effort to coordinate audio visual mechanics and integrate them more seamlessly into our daily lives." I love the design, it even works as a pleasant visual substitute for a plant. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.5/10 - Popularity: 32% | Activity: 36% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Gadgets](https://www.trendhunter.com/gadgets) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Colorful Speaker Designs:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create unique and visually appealing speaker designs to stand out in the market. - **Integrated Audio-visual Systems:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop seamless integration of audio and visual mechanics in everyday products for enhanced user experience. - **Functional Decorative Objects:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Combine functionality and aesthetics to create decorative objects that serve a practical purpose. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Consumer Electronics:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Redefine the design and functionality of consumer electronics products to meet evolving consumer preferences. - **Home Decor:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore the intersection of functionality and design in home decor to offer unique and practical products. - **Product Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Push the boundaries of traditional product design by merging unexpected elements to create innovative and engaging solutions. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Flower Bud-Inspired Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/orris-speaker-concept.md) - [Discreet Outdoor Garden Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/garden-series.md) - [Whimsically Designed Speaker Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/a-for-ara-fs1-and-fs2.md) - [Nature-Inspired Multifunctional Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moss-echo.md) - [Mushroom-Core Audio Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mycoaudio.md) - [Vase-Style Speaker Charger Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soak.md) - [Headphone-Holding Speaker Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cornucopia-speaker.md) - [Nature-Inspired Speaker Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/devialet-butterfly.md) - [Tree-Inspired Speaker Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lg-pick-stand-speaker.md)
