Made for Droog by Niels van Eijk and Miriam van der Lubbe, the [ornate 'Godogan' table](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modern-table-designs) depicts an Indonesian fairy tale. With deep relief carvings on one side and inscriptions on the top, this [artisan wooden surface](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/boia) will be the next must-have movable on commission for high-class homes. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.4/10 - Popularity: 94% | Activity: 89% | 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) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Artisanal Furniture:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation to revive traditional craftsmanship in furniture design. - **Fairy Tale Inspired:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation to incorporate storytelling elements into furniture design. - **Commission-based Luxury:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation to create customized, high-end furniture pieces. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Furniture Design:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in creating unique and intricate furniture pieces. - **Home Decor:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in incorporating storytelling and cultural elements into home decor products. - **Interior Design:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in providing customized and luxurious furniture options for high-end interior design projects. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Island-Inspired Wooden Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/island-table.md) - [Culturally Significant Wooden Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/woodcarving-heritage.md) - [Unique Burl-Inspired Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/don-heston-studio.md) - [Design-Forward Furniture Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/furniture-collection1.md) - [Indigenous Amazonian-Inspired Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ibuju.md) - [Artful Wooden Furniture Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/knowledge-of-all-dark-things.md) - [Striking Wood Furniture Silhouettes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/irish-furniture-design.md) - [Textured Modern Furniture Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/touch-collections.md) - [Sculptural Timber Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barricane-tables.md)
