The collection was founded by a man named Lionel who used 3D software to create the designs for each individual product. The decor items are made from "ultra high-performance concrete that is tinted in the mass with natural pigments or oxides." The Croque Beton products come in a variety of shapes and designs, including concrete clocks, bowls, coasters, dishes, and oval and square trays. Most of the colors in the collection are earthy, while some of the [minimalist designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/trama-collection) are made to be emphasized with [engraved patterns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/collection-co). This [concrete decor collection](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cimento) provides minimalist functional products for the home. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.0/10 - Popularity: 73% | Activity: 39% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Minimalist Home Decor:** Opportunity for introducing simple and functional decor items that enhance the aesthetic appeal of a home. - **3D Printed Designs:** Disruptive innovation opportunity to leverage 3D software and printing technology to create unique and customizable decor items. - **Natural Pigments & Oxides:** Potential for using natural pigments and oxides in the production of concrete decor items, offering a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to traditional materials. ### Who This Affects Most - **Home Decor:** Innovative companies can tap into the growing demand for minimalist and functional home decor products. - **3D Printing:** Advancements in 3D printing technology can revolutionize the production process of concrete decor items. - **Sustainable Design:** Enterprises can focus on creating eco-friendly decor items by incorporating natural pigments and oxides into their manufacturing process. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Concrete Sculptural Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ancora.md) - [Sturdy Home Decor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modern-cement-decor.md) - [Concrete Hand-Poured Home Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skkn-by-kim-2.md) - [3D-Printed Home Decor Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/argot-studio-x-ssense.md) - [Playful Concrete Wash Basins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kast-wave-collection.md) - [Utilitarian Design Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dpartment.md) - [Curated Home Decor Platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modern-decor-for-home.md) - [Stealthy Home Furnishing Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/credo-collection.md) - [Performance-Driven Minimalist Tiles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/minimalist-tile.md)
