# Adjustable Puzzle Furniture The Creative Hound Occasional Tables by Kristy Whyte By Marissa Liu | Published 2009-10-13 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hound-occasional-tables-by-kristy-whyte References: [design-milk](http://design-milk.com/purewhyte/#more-16173) & [pure-whyte](http://www.pure-whyte.com/) The Hound occasional tables by Kristy Whyte fit together and can be arranged in interesting patterns. The tables can be stacked on top of each other to create a lovely pinwheel-esque effect and save space or can be configured to create functional, growing tables; perfect for a large family dinner, buffet or study group. Inspired by origami folds and traditional Japanese patterns the Hound occasional tables by Kristy Whyte are made from [powder-coated milk steel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/twist-side-table) and laser cut. They come in a variety of colors and three different sizes. Due to their adjustable nature they make excellent [side, coffee or dining tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/turno). [Customized patterns and designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/swivel) can be laser-cut into the tables to provide unique and pretty accents to the series. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.9/10 - Popularity: 42% | Activity: 66% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## 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 - **Adjustable Furniture:** Opportunity for furniture companies to create versatile, space-saving designs that can be easily adjusted to fit different needs and preferences. - **Laser-cut Furniture:** Opportunity for furniture manufacturers to use laser-cutting technology to create intricate and unique designs on their products, allowing for customization and personalization options. - **Modular Furniture:** Opportunity for furniture brands to create modular designs that can be easily assembled and disassembled, providing flexibility and the ability to adapt to changing living spaces and needs. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Furniture:** Furniture manufacturers can use adjustable, laser-cut, and modular concepts to create a new generation of furniture that is not only aesthetically pleasing but also customizable and functional. - **Design:** Design and product development companies can work in collaboration with furniture manufacturers to create innovative and unique furniture designs that incorporate technologies such as laser-cutting and modular components. - **Interior Design:** Interior design businesses can incorporate adjustable, laser-cut, and modular furniture into their designs, offering clients furniture options that not only look great but also meet their specific needs and preferences. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Interlocking Puzzle-Like Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/connect-table.md) - [Colorful Contemporary Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/runda-tables.md) - [Dynamic Sculptural Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/interactive-transformation-table.md) - [Industrial Shapeshifting Table Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jointable.md) - [Modern Customizable Table Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/customizable-table-design.md) - [Moveable Wave-Inspired Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/side-table-concept.md) - [Playful Wavy Table Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wavy-table-design.md) - [Puzzling Geometric Side Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/linked-side-table.md) - [Planet-Conscious Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fyrn.md)
