# Fishy Furnishings Salmon Pillows By Cowbag | Published 2008-08-10 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fishy-furnishings-sleeeping-with-your-head-on-a-salmon References: [2dayblog](http://www.2dayblog.com/blog/2006/11/27/livingstones-cushion/?lang=en) I love this pillow designed to look like a realistic fish - it is of course from Japan and incredibly bizarre. I think keeping this in theme with the other furnishings in the room could be a tad tricky too. I am particularly fond of the fishy cushion's [supermarket-style packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/summertime-art-box). Also worth a mention is the equally realistic looking [pizza cushion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pantlers-rations). My thoughts on this are pretty well the same as to those of the with [salmon pillow](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hokkaido-salmon-burger). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.8/10 - Popularity: 3% | Activity: 12% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Home](https://www.trendhunter.com/home) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Realistic Food Pillows:** Producing a line of realistic-looking food pillows could disrupt the home decor market and attract food-loving and novelty-seeking consumers. - **Supermarket-style Packaging:** Designing household items with supermarket-style packaging could create a trend in the home decor industry and appeal to consumers looking for unique packaging. - **Japanese-inspired Home Decor:** Introducing more Japanese-inspired home decor products, like the fish and pizza pillows, could disrupt the home decor market with their unique and playful designs. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Home Decor:** Incorporating realistic food pillows into home decor could attract a new segment of consumers looking for novelty items and playful designs. - **Packaging:** Using supermarket-style packaging for household items could create a new packaging trend in the home decor industry. - **Novelty Gift:** Realistic food pillows could also create a trend in the novelty gift industry and appeal to consumers looking for unique and quirky gifts. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Vibrant Designer Decor Pillows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/designer-decor-pillow.md) - [Cartoon Creature-Themed Sofas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rowlet-sofa.md) - [Collectible Plush Pillows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/squishpillow-by-original-squishmallows.md) - [Crinkle-Cut Fry-Themed Body Pillows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crinkle-cut-cuddler.md) - [Menu-Themed Plush Items](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fish-chips-experience.md) - [Oversized Hollow Pillow Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/floof-snuggle-sack-and-floor-pillow.md) - [Two-In-One Plush Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cute-animal-pillow-with-blanket.md) - [Fish Lover Snacking Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tinned-fish.md) - [Dish-Inspired Plushie Pop-Ups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jellycats-fish-chips.md)
