Luckily for the smokers, the weather in the country is almost spring-like, so they can do what they like the best: sit outside their [favourite cafeteria or bar](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cafe-franois), smoke, drink, and watch the world go by. But for worst conditions, Parisian designer, Florian Brillet came up with an idea, that he calls [Smoker Bell](http://www.dezeen.com/2008/01/09/smoker-bell-by-florian-brillet-architecture). It is indeed an adjustable hood that can be attached to a wall and hosts two persons. He didn't forget the oh-so-important drinks stand, so at least it doesn't look exactly like a bigger version of the old-school blow dryer bell. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.8/10 - Popularity: 41% | Activity: 6% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Unique](https://www.trendhunter.com/unique) > [Inventions](https://www.trendhunter.com/inventions) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Outdoor Smoking Solutions:** Opportunity for innovative designs to provide smokers with comfortable and convenient outdoor smoking areas. - **Adjustable Hoods:** Designs that allow for adjustable hoods provide flexibility and customization for users. - **Multi-functional Design:** Designs that combine a smoking area with a drinks stand offer enhanced convenience for smokers. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Hospitality:** Hotels, restaurants, and bars can benefit from providing outdoor smoking solutions to enhance the customer experience. - **Outdoor Furniture:** Companies specializing in outdoor furniture can explore the opportunity to create adjustable hoods for smokers in their designs. - **Bar Equipment:** Manufacturers of bar equipment can consider incorporating multi-functional designs that combine a smoking area with a drinks stand. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Cocktail Smoking Cloches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smoking-cloches.md) - [Filter-Equipped Indoor Smokers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/indoor-pellet-smoker.md) - [At-Home Cocktail Smokers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electric-cocktail-smoker.md) - [Retro-Modern Ashtray Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/houseplant-side-table-ashtray.md) - [Design-Conscious Cannabis Ashtrays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/standing-ashtray.md) - [Indoor-Friendly Smoker Appliances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smokerx.md) - [Cigarette Waste Hats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shearling-style-hat.md) - [Cloud-Like French Restaurants](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mon-nuage.md) - [Topographically Accented Smokeware](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vessel-helix.md)
