# DIY Vinification Art The Sabine Marcelis House Wine Kit Displays Fermenting By Meghan Young | Published 2011-10-30 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/house-wine References: [fastcodesign](http://www.fastcodesign.com/1665309/a-kit-that-turns-homemade-wine-into-beautiful-art) & [sabinemarcelis](http://sabinemarcelis.com/work/house-wine/) For those not familiar with the vinification process, especially when done at home, it can be a very tedious and unsightly job, yet the [House](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/water-and-wine) Wine Kit turns this process into a thing of beauty. In place of hideous plastic buckets, airlocks and hoses, the House Wine Kit uses glass containers, clear tubing and a wood and brass stand that work together to create a work of art, not just wine. Created by The Netherlands-based design student [Sabine Marcelis](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lisse-sofa-collection), the House Wine Kit allows the [wine-making process](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vinebox-wine-kit) to be displayed proudly in the house, instead of hidden in some basement or garage. To process, a fruity mixture is sealed into the glass vessel of the House Wine Kit and squeezed through a tube via gravity into prone bottles resting in the oak case when ready. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.4/10 - Popularity: 25% | Activity: 38% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Home Vinification:** The trend of home vinification is gaining popularity as consumers seek to create their own high-quality wine in a stylish and visually appealing way. - **Aesthetic Wine-making:** There is a growing trend towards creating wine-making kits and equipment that are not only functional but also visually appealing, incorporating design and aesthetics. - **Displayable Fermentation:** The trend of displaying the fermentation process as a form of art in the home is becoming popular, with products like the House Wine Kit showcasing the beauty of vinification. ### Where This Applies - **Home Brewing:** The home brewing industry has the opportunity to cater to the increasing demand for stylish and visually appealing kits and equipment for vinification. - **Interior Design:** Incorporating vinification kits, like the House Wine Kit, into the design of home interiors can be an opportunity for the interior design industry to offer unique and functional decor. - **Artisanal Wine:** Artisanal wine producers can tap into the trend of displaying the fermentation process as a form of art by creating visually stunning and displayable wine-making kits. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Fermentation Countertop Vessels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/keep.md) - [Modular Architectural Wine Racks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barrique-bottle-holder.md) - [Coastal Wine Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/seaside-tasting-wine-kit.md) - [DIY Hard Cider Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hard-cider-brewing-kit.md) - [Natural Wine Starter Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/natural-wine-starter-kit.md) - [Wine-Catered Vibrant Artful Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wine-table.md) - [Historic Mill-Transformed Vineyards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wine-storehouse.md) - [Single-Serve Wine Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coravin-vinitas.md) - [Bottle-Optimizing Wine Stoppers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wine-stopper-1.md)
