# Models as Furniture 'The Furniture Maker' by Toky Photography Turns Styling Into a Craft By Marissa Brassfield | Published 2010-04-18 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/furniture-maker-by-toky-photography References: [behance.net](http://www.behance.net/Gallery/The-Furniture-Maker/483882) & [behance.net](http://www.behance.net/tokyphotography) Both furniture and fashion are works of art, and 'The Furniture Maker' by Toky Photography brings this point home in a stunning way. In the shoot, a [furniture craftsman](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/woodcarving-heritage) works on his gorgeous masterpiece--a model outfitted in [couture gowns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/saint-laurent-revives). He shapes her arm with tools, applies color to her eyes and cheeks with woodworking tools, and admires her progress from his work bench. 'The Furniture Maker' by Toky Photography is one of my favorite [fashion shoots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shots-maker), as it blends two aspects of art that I love. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.1/10 - Popularity: 51% | Activity: 4% | 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) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Artistic Mashups:** Combining different forms of art to create new and unique experiences, products, and services. - **Functional Fashion:** Incorporating fashion and clothing into everyday products to create a stylish and practical solution. - **Craftsmanship Collaboration:** Encouraging artisans and craftsmen from different industries to work together to create innovative products that merge their unique skills and techniques. ### Who This Affects Most - **Furniture:** Exploring the potential of incorporating fashion and clothing elements into furniture designs and materials. - **Fashion:** Collaborating with craftsmen and artisans to create unique and functional fashion pieces that incorporate elements of home decor and furniture design. - **Photography:** Experimenting with new and unconventional approaches to photography that blend different forms of art and creative disciplines. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Extravagant Handcrafted Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/handcrafted-furniture.md) - [Cutting-Edge Wearable Furnishings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cuttingedge-wearable-furnishings-mcm-wearable-casa-intersects-luxury-fashio.md) - [Jewelry-Inspired Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/through-chrome-reflections.md) - [Furniture-Expressive Magazines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/somewhere-magazine.md) - [Textured Modern Furniture Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/touch-collections.md) - [Elegant Woodturned Furniture Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/woodturned-furniture.md) - [Tailor-Made Furniture Ranges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aesthetics-and-functionality.md) - [Anatomically Inspired Geometric Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/boyd-works.md) - [Juxtaposed Materials Furniture Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wool-diaries-collection.md)
