# Ancestral Tree Maps The Hila Ben-Navat Family Tree Uniquely Documents People and Memories By Meghan Young | Published 2009-11-17 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hila-ben-navat-family-tree References: [behance.net](http://www.behance.net/Gallery/My-Family-Tree/337520) Although family is always important, this is the time of year we truly reflect upon just how important it truly is and, clearly, the Hila Ben-navat [Family Tree](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aviana-collection) is one impressive reflection. With Thanksgiving behind us and Christmas approaching, perhaps we should take note and start researching our own [family line](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/my-journey). Designing an innovative and creative display, the Hila Ben-navat Family Tree is a set of five separate maps of five subjects. According to the designer, “One side is always informative, text-dependent and contains [memories of different people](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/remento). The second side is my interpretation of the first side; it is personal and maintains the dynamics between me, my family, and the place I am connecting from.” ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.6/10 - Popularity: 40% | Activity: 1% | 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 - **Personalized Family History Mapping:** Designing personalized family history maps that creatively display family lineages and memories. - **Dynamic Family Tree Structures:** Innovative designs that connect family dynamics to ancestral tree maps. - **Digitized Family Memory Preservation:** Using modern technology to scan and display family memories on ancestral tree maps. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Genealogy and Family History:** Creating new opportunities for innovative family history services and products. - **Home Décor and Interior Design:** Integrating ancestral tree maps as a design element in home decor. - **Digital Technology and Mapping:** Innovative software development for mapping family lineages and digitized memory preservation. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Keepsake Family Legacy Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kindred-tales.md) - [Tech-Advanced Family Memories Projects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/family-memories.md) - [Holiday Heritage Partnerships](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jennieo-and-myheritage.md) - [Virtual Holiday Collaborations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wishfultree.md) - [Voice-Based Family Storytelling](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/family-storytelling.md) - [Photo-Sharing Memory Maps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/memorymaps.md) - [Reflective Memorial Architecture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sanctum-of-trees.md) - [Personalized Keepsake Storybooks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/my-life-in-a-book.md) - [Folded Paper Figures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clara-von-zweibergk.md)
