# Frames for Flowers Wall-Mounted Bouquets Add Space-Saving Beauty to Any Room By Tinkalicious | Published 2009-01-03 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frames-for-flowers-cedric-ragots-design References: [yankodesign](http://www.yankodesign.com/2009/01/02/dont-be-caught-without-flower-frames/) & [cedricragot](http://www.cedricragot.com/) The simply yet lovely flower frame is the ingenious design work of Cedric Ragot. Ragot has a terrific design aesthetic and his designs include such disparate items as snowboards, bicycles, crash helmets, tables, sofas, watches, clocks, and phones. The [flower frames](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ripple-picture-frame), which are constructed with [integrated vases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lotus-effect-vase), resemble the “Compose-it” versions of Ymer and Malta that also appear in the gallery. They are fabricated from the material more commonly used for kitchen counters, [DuPont](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/foam-sealant) Corian. **Implications** - The desire for products that provide several functions and are easily stored has increased greatly during the credit crunch, as consumers have had to downsize and now seek items that eliminate clutter in small spaces. Businesses can benefit from this by developing products that are practical and combine functions without sacrificing sophisticated style. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.0/10 - Popularity: 26% | Activity: 26% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Multi-function Products:** Businesses can innovate and develop practical products that combine functions and eliminate clutter in small spaces. - **Integrated Design:** Designers and businesses can incorporate integrated vases into various products, allowing for multi-functional use. - **Material Innovation:** Exploring the use of DuPont Corian or other unconventional materials can create new opportunities for product design. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Home Decor:** Developing space-saving and multi-functional home decor products can appeal to consumers seeking practical and stylish solutions for small spaces. - **Product Design:** Designers can incorporate integrated vases or explore unconventional materials to create innovative and practical product designs. - **Flower Industry:** Integrating vases into flower frames and other products can add value to the flower industry and create unique offerings for consumers seeking floral arrangements. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Jewelry-Holding Flower Vases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mirror-vase-stand.md) - [Vibrant Dynamic Wall Plant-Hangers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/floos.md) - [Conceptual Fresh Flower Refrigerators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flora.md) - [Modular Marble Photo Frames](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/memorable-picture-frame.md) - [Personalized Floral Grid Vases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grid-vase.md) - [Cylindrical Glass Photo Frames](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/filigree-series.md) - [Speaker-Equipped Flower Vases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blooming-product.md) - [Multifunctional Home Decor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iza-vase.md) - [Vertical Workstation Wall Planters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ceramic-wall-planter.md)
