# Kiddy Number Crunchers The 'Hopscotch Calculator' is a Cool Facelift for an Old Favorite By Robyn Currie | Published 2010-06-14 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hopscotch-calculator References: [yankodesign](http://www.yankodesign.com/2010/06/11/hopscotch-calculator/) & [kibardindesign](http://www.kibardindesign.com/) The 'Hopscotch Calculator' by Vadim Kibardin is a cleaver little design that is a seriously cute creation. Instead of sticking to the usual calculator motif, the Hopscotch Calculator revamps the number sequence to look like a hopscotch game. Granted, this is one game you will not be able to jump on, but the 'Hopscotch Calculator' will have you looking even cooler as you crunch those numbers. **Implications** - Revamping products is just one way that businesses can continue to remain innovative and cutting-edge. While many businesses feel they need to totally overhall their product designs periodically, the reality is that a more cost-effective avenue to take is to simply make tweaks based on what consumers liked and didn't like about your business's previous product versions. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.5/10 - Popularity: 9% | Activity: 27% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha, Millennial - 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 ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Revamped Product Designs:** Businesses can remain innovative and cutting-edge by revamping their product designs based on consumer preferences. - **Cost-effective Innovation:** Making tweaks to previous product versions based on consumer feedback provides a more cost-effective avenue for businesses to innovate. - **Consumer-centric Design:** Adopting consumer-centric design principles allows businesses to create products that better align with customer preferences. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Consumer Electronics:** Revamping product designs based on consumer feedback can drive innovation within the consumer electronics industry. - **Office Supplies:** Making cost-effective tweaks to product designs can lead to disruptive innovation opportunities within the office supplies industry. - **Toy and Game Manufacturing:** Adopting consumer-centric design principles can revolutionize the toy and game manufacturing industry by creating products that better resonate with children. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Stationery-Friendly Calculators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flip-calculator.md) - [Customizable Calculator Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/designable-calculator.md) - [Soothing Calculator Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/equals-calculator.md) - [AI-Powered Calculators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/calculator-concept.md) - [Numpad-Style Calculators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/denten.md) - [Animated Learning Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/calcplay.md) - [Smart Calculation Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ipad-calculator.md) - [Classic Calculator-Inspired Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casio-ca53wb.md) - [Intelligent Portable Board Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eifplay.md)
