Well, they’re baaack! But this time on a grander scale, and are even environmentally friendly. They are made of all sorts of [recycled plastic containers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/atlanta-airport-chairs), even plastic baskets. The “beads” were strung together to form massive curtains all around the [Jamsil Olympic Stadium](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kunshan-olympic-sports-centre) in Seoul, South Korea. It must have taken some doing to hang them all up. One assumes they will recycle the plastic material again after the show! The occasion is for DesignBoom’s [first showcase in Seoul](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/design-seoul-20) which will display the work of 30 emerging designers from around the world. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.0/10 - Popularity: 26% | Activity: 27% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Sustainable Decor:** Opportunity for businesses to create eco-friendly decor options using recycled materials. - **Large-scale Beaded Curtains:** Businesses can explore the use of massive beaded curtains for innovative and visually striking interior design. - **Emerging Designer Showcases:** Opportunity to support and promote the work of emerging designers through showcases and exhibitions. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Interior Design:** Innovative beaded curtains present a disruptive opportunity for interior design businesses to offer unique and sustainable decor solutions. - **Sustainable Manufacturing:** Manufacturing companies can explore using recycled materials to create eco-friendly products like the giant eco bead curtains. - **Event Management:** Providing showcases and exhibitions for emerging designers is a disruptive innovation opportunity for event management companies. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Discarded Theater Screen Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/discarded-theater-screen.md) - [Nature-Inspired Urban Art Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kriskadecor-1.md) - [Repurposed Election Materials](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yonhap.md) - [Green Cosmetics Concept Stores](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/innisfree-store.md) - [Cinema Screen Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cinema-screen-lamp.md) - [Dynamic Interactive Lighting Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zava.md) - [Musical Island Regeneration](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soundscape-1.md) - [Greenery-Filled Skyscraper Terrarium](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/terrarium-cheongdam.md) - [Music Festival Bright Pavilions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reright-design.md)
