# Digital Drinking Icons iMats Are Coasters Honouring The iPhone By Cowbag | Published 2009-02-17 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/imats-coasters-honouring-the-iphone References: [meninos.us](http://www.meninos.us/shop/en/produtos/coasters/coasters.html) Sadly the iMats are less geeky then they sound and are in fact just a set of coasters that match [iPhone](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/g4-charger) icons. They're pretty cool and a nice way to tech up your pad without going too far down the bachelor route. Throw in some of the [iPhone icon cushions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/finder-icon-backpack) previously featured on this site, serve up some of the iCupcakes and it's almost like you are living inside a [Mac](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/esc-keys) store - except without the cool designer white interior and (generally) hot assistants! There are also 16 of them which is pretty good for a coaster set. Other random sets from the same site include a set of four ‘drains.' ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.5/10 - Popularity: 8% | Activity: 60% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Mobile](https://www.trendhunter.com/mobile) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Tech-themed Home Decor:** Develop products that incorporate technology into traditional home decor to add a modern edge. - **Icon-inspired Products:** Explore the possibility of creating products that resemble popular tech icons. - **Geek Chic Coasters:** Create coaster sets that appeal to the geek demographic by incorporating technology references. ### Where This Applies - **Home Decor:** Incorporate technology into traditional home decor products to appeal to a wider range of consumers. - **Consumer Goods:** Leverage popular tech icons to create unique and innovative consumer goods. - **Kitchenware:** Develop geek-themed kitchenware products, such as coasters, to appeal to the tech-savvy demographic. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Smart Tabletop Coasters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-tabletop-coaster.md) - [Aquatic Beverage Coasters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crab-inspired-coasters.md) - [Turntable-Inspired Coaster Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/needledrop-coaster-set.md) - [Warm-Toned Marble Coasters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lusine-coasters.md) - [Vintage Icon-Themed Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/susan-kare.md) - [Astrological Drinkware Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zodiac-constellation-coasters.md) - [Retro Computer-Inspired Phone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/classic-c1.md) - [Drink Coaster Phone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultimate-signalfree-party.md) - [PC Component Desk Mats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ekloot-mousepad.md)
