Made entirely from [powder-coated steel sheets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/multidrawer), the 'MAGAZIN' stand is built in the shape of a house that's stylish while providing storage and functionality. Magazines are stacked inside the house and for those who are disturbed from reading, simply lie the magazine on the roof to save your page so that you can pick up where you left off. The magazine stand comes in black, white and red. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.4/10 - Popularity: 3% | Activity: 1% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Stylish Storage Solutions:** The 'MAGAZIN' magazine stand offers a stylish and functional way to store magazines. - **Functional Furniture Design:** The house-shaped design of the 'MAGAZIN' stand provides both storage and functionality, serving as a multi-purpose furniture piece. - **Interactive Reading Accessories:** The roof of the 'MAGAZIN' stand doubles as a page-saving feature, allowing readers to easily mark their progress in a magazine. ### Where This Applies - **Home Decor:** The 'MAGAZIN' stand is a trendy addition to the home decor industry, combining style and functionality. - **Retail:** Retailers can explore the potential of selling unique and innovative magazine storage solutions like the 'MAGAZIN' stand to meet customer demands. - **Furniture Design:** The 'MAGAZIN' stand showcases the opportunity for furniture designers to create versatile pieces that offer practical storage features. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Single-Piece Wooden Magazine Racks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skola.md) - [Versatile Book Displays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/penguin-x-moebe-book-stand.md) - [Modernized Old-Fashioned Side Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/union-side-table.md) - [Book-Storing Side Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bookgroove-bookrack.md) - [Reading Book Stands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/penguin-x-moebe.md) - [Curvaceous Storage-Focused Nightstands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cozy-night-stand.md) - [Sandbox-Like Modular Storage Cabinets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modular-storage-cabinet1.md) - [Modular Retail Product-Designed Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/muji-muji-55.md) - [Minimal Gridded Umbrella Stands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-grid.md)
